Recent Career Fair Employer Attendee Data

We’re excited to announce a new addition to our Career Services resources — a comprehensive list of companies that have attended Michigan Tech’s all-campus career fairs over the past three years! This includes employers who have participated in Career Fairs – either Fall or Spring since Spring 2023. The list provides valuable insight into the breadth of organizations that actively engage with our students, representing industries ranging from engineering and technology to business, healthcare, and beyond.

This new resource is designed to help students and alumni better prepare for career events and identify potential employers that have shown consistent interest in Michigan Tech talent. By exploring the list, you can discover which companies frequently recruit on campus. lt’s a great way to make your job search more informed and targeted.

We encourage you to take advantage of this tool and use it to enhance your career planning and professional development. Whether you’re a current student exploring internship options or an alum looking for new opportunities, the list showcases the strong employer connections that continue to grow through Michigan Tech’s partnerships.

Building a Career in Steel: How a Michigan Tech Alum Found Her Path at Nucor

In this episode of Husky Careers: Unleashed, host Ryan Thompson chats with Michigan Tech alumna Jenna Davids, who graduated in 2019 with a civil engineering degree and now works as an engineering supervisor at Nucor’s Insulated Panel Group. Jenna shares her journey from civil engineering student to leader in the steel industry, highlighting the importance of internships, mentorship, and company culture along the way.

Discovering Opportunities Through Internships

Jenna completed three internships while at Tech, each shaping her career path in different ways. A freshman internship in manufacturing gave her valuable experience, while her second role in road construction confirmed her interest in hands-on work. Her third internship with Nucor happened almost by accident. She approached their booth at Career Fair just to practice, and that conversation, along with her request for feedback, led to an internship offer.

Career Services is excited to introduce a new Handshake Collection: By Huskies For Huskies.

Similar to “staff picks” at your favorite bookstore, this curated collection highlights select job opportunities to help you discover roles that may be a great fit.

If you’d like to feature a job from your company in this collection, we’d love to include it! Simply send the URL of your Handshake job posting to career@mtu.edu, and Career Services will manually add it to the By Huskies For Huskies collection.

Using LinkedIn For Job Postings

Over 10,000 Michigan Tech Alumni are members of the LinkedIn Michigan Tech Alumni group. In order to join this group, you’ll need to prove that you attended Michigan Tech. We welcome all alumni to join this group for professional networking.
