Career Treks are hands-on experiences where groups of 15-30 students have the opportunity to visit your company and learn about your organization’s unique cultures and values, and discover potential career paths.

Why should I host a career trek?

• Increase brand awareness among SJSU’s +36K students
• Network with diverse candidates
• Reinforce and expand your new talent pipeline

What Hosting Looks Like

Career treks are in-person experiences. The goal is for students to experience what it’s like to work onsite at different companies.

There are no formal program fees to host a career trek. Employers may choose to provide lunch and/or other refreshments, but it is not mandatory.

Treks occur on weekdays during the Fall Semester (September – November) and Spring Semester (February – April), and are usually between 90 minutes and 4 hours. Employers have full discretion on the length of the Trek.

Treks can include a company tour, presentations, Q&A panels, networking opportunities, or any other activities that best showcase your organization’s unique organization and culture.
