Husker student-athletes gathered in the West Stadium Club of Memorial Stadium on Monday, February 20th for the 31st Annual Husker Student-Athlete Career Fair. In total, 192 student-athletes attended the event which featured 36 companies with representatives from the Lincoln and Omaha area. Many of the companies in attendance also have a presence at the national level for student-athletes who wish to seek employment outside of Nebraska following graduation. The Husker Student-Athlete Career Fair, which is the longest running four-year tiered program hosted by the Life Skills department, annually aims to connect 3rd-6th year student-athletes with employers in their area of interest for internship and full-time job opportunities.
"The variety of companies in attendance was great and it was nice to be able to connect with people from so many different industries. I really appreciated how the recruiters were open to network and find things in common with everyone they spoke to regardless of their major or career goals" Lindsey Thiele, Women's Golf.
"It was awesome to connect with companies at the career fair that line up with my professional goals and interests. Many of the people I connected with played collegiate sports as well so it was cool to see that it is possible to do what I really want to do professionally after I finish my football career" Ty Robinson, Football.
