Employers and Career Partnerships
Connecting industry partners with our extraordinary students
Our students learn hands-on from their very first semester in the college, and are ready to step right in to an internship or employee you are looking for. Connect with us through our student events, career fairs, and hosted seminars.
Employers can screen candidate resumes, add their current postings, and modify their organization’s profile using the familiar Handshake platform. It’s a free service, and if you “like” us in Handshake, you’ll also get our latest information and notifications.

How many people can staff my booth?
It depends on the type of registration:
- Non-profit, government, and small businesses can have up to two people per table.
- Large businesses can have up to four people.
- Sponsors can have up to 10 people.
Do I need to bring my own tables? How much swag/materials should I bring?
Tables and chairs will be provided.
For swag, handouts, and other materials, we have had on average 1,000 students visit the career fair in-person during previous events. However, that doesn’t mean they will all visit each booth.
Is electricity or internet provided in my booth?
Electricity is an extra $25 fee per registration. An internet is included for no additional cost.
What is the refund policy? Can I cancel the day of the event and get a refund?
There is a $50 processing fee for cancellations.
Can employers offer co-ops as well? What about overall internship questions?
Please contact the Engineering Success Center at engr-careeradvising@colostate.edu
Is there a waitlist if the event is full? How does that work?
Registration is first come, first serve. If an employer waitlist is implemented, registration will depend on industry representation.
What if I have an outstanding invoice from other events?
For returning employers, please be sure to have all outstanding invoices for previous fairs paid and jobs posted into Handshake.
