Career Fair

Held once each semester, fall and spring, the South Dakota Mines Career Fair connects over 1,000 students with 178 employers nationwide (about a fourth from South Dakota, the rest from across the United States). Many employers recruit on our campus every year, but each Career Fair also sees new participants looking to recruit South Dakota Mines job seeking students. Many employers conduct next-day interviews with students.
