This fall, we’re flipping the script on the traditional career expo — again! At ShowcaseU: Meet the Student Groups, employers come to you. Student organizations will host their own tables to highlight their mission, achievements, and impact on campus, while employers attending the Career Expo are invited to visit and engage directly with student leaders before the Expo’s second day officially begins.

This unique format provides student groups with high-visibility exposure to employers eager to connect with engaged, innovative, and community-driven students. Last year, top employers like Anheuser-Busch, Mars Inc., Bloomingdale’s, Procter & Gamble, AlphaSights, Mercy, and Thermo Fisher Scientific took part—and interest is already building for this year.

Don’t miss this chance to showcase your group’s story, expand your network, and create meaningful connections with recruiters who are actively hiring WashU students.
