Axe ’Em, Jacks!
The Center for Career and Professional Development (CCPD) hosts various events each semester to help all current SFA students and alumni grow, learn and explore their professional development. For more information about each event, log in to your Handshake account and search for Events or Career Fairs. We encourage everyone to pre-register for the events to help our office better prepare. You are also always welcome to email or call the CCPD with any questions or concerns.
Employers can find more information about attending a specific Career Fair by clicking on the links below or visiting our Recruiting at SFA page.
Please note that professional dress is required for all career fair attendance unless otherwise noted. If needed, we offer free professional clothing (suits, slacks, skirts, blazers, shoes, ties, tops, etc.) that students can borrow from the CCPD Career Closet. Stop by the CCPD Office (3rd floor of the Baker Pattillo Student Center, Room 3.302) Monday through Friday, 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. to look through the closet.

First Destination Survey - May 2024 Graduates
All May 2024 Graduates are invited to complete the graduation survey, known as the First Destination Survey. The survey lets SFA know your plans for after graduation. If you aren’t sure of those just yet, you can still fill out the form and then contact the CCPD as we can help! Scan the QR code in the image, visit the First Destination Survey section of Handshake or check your SFA email for the link. Students who complete the survey before Senior Send-Off will get a free pint glass.
