PARTICIPATE IN THE EMPLOYER PARTNER PROGRAM
Employer partnership plays a key role in the career development of the next generation. The Office of Career and Professional Development Employer Partner Program (EPP) provides an opportunity for employers to showcase their company and increase their visibility to qualified Georgia Southern University students for internships, co-ops and full-time recruitment purposes.
What Sponsorship Levels Are Available?
EPP levels include Eagle, Gold, and Silver Partner levels. Each program level provides employers with visibility and recognition on the Office of Career and Professional Development website, on Handshake and in our offices on the Statesboro and Armstrong Campuses. Gold and Eagle Partner levels include additional benefits such as complimentary registration fees for on-campus career events, preferred location at career fairs and targeted social media packages. To select the program that fits your needs, contact Glenn Gibney, Associate Vice President of Career Readiness.
“The Office of Career and Professional Development at Georgia Southern University is unlike any other career services department I have ever had the pleasure of working with. Their dedication to both their students as well as their professional partners such as myself is unparalleled in my opinion and they have made my job substantially easier.”
-Colin Beauchamp, Enterprise Holdings

Each year, during the fall and spring semesters, the Office of Career and Professional Development hosts several major career fairs. Click Here if you are interested in attending one of these events.
Information sessions can be scheduled at any time. Many times, sessions are scheduled around the time of career fairs and other on-campus recruiting events. These sessions are great tools for employers recruiting on campus to reach qualified candidates. Information sessions are designed to give candidates basic company information such as demographics, culture, future organizational plans, job information, benefits and company history. Please request information sessions through Handshake found at GeorgiaSouthern.joinhandshake.com. Click Here for more information.
Information tables are another method of reaching out to students on campus. A table will be reserved for you in one or more of our high-traffic areas around campus. Information tables are usually scheduled during peak hours on campus, from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. Please call the Office of Career and Professional Development if you are interested.
There are over 75 academic and professional student organizations at Georgia Southern and even more classes that would be receptive to employers coming to their meetings. Please request at least 3 weeks in advance so appropriate people can be contacted and the event can be scheduled.
