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.
