For Employers
Thank you for your interest in recruiting students and graduates of the Jackson School of Geosciences. Through JSG Career Services, employers can connect with our students in a variety of ways. We host a major career fair specializing in geoscience, environmental and energy each fall semester followed by on-campus recruiting and interviewing. In the spring semester, we host Employer Spotlight Days where employers can highlight their company and interview if they choose. More information on the different types of recruiting can be found below.
The JSG Career Center follows the NACE Principles as well as NACE’s guidelines for making offers to students. We are happy to answer any questions about NACE guidelines and policies. Please view our Recruiting Guidelines page to learn more about NACE, as well as the JSG recruiting guidelines.
Ways to Connect with Students

12Twenty@Texas is our new, online career services platform. Similar to Handshake, companies can find students here, register for events like the career fair and post jobs and internships. 12Twenty will be active starting June 2, 2025.
On Campus Interviews
We welcome companies to interview on UT campus while the students are actively applying to jobs and internships. The Jackson School of Geosciences and the Career Success Office have joined up to offer an excellent employer and student interviewing experience by availing more interview space inside the Flawn Academic Center (FAC). Reservations for the interview space will open in early July for the Fall 2025 recruiting season. Reach out to recruitut@austin.utexas.edu to make your space reservation.
Company Information Sessions and Employer Spotlight Days
Employers are welcome to come to campus to showcase their company to our JSG students. This can be done through information sessions and/or employee spotlight days, where employers will meet with students and provide insight to their company. This is a great opportunity to promote your company and recruit some high-level candidates at the Jackson School.
Career Fairs & Campus Expos
The Jackson School hosts a career fair every fall. We also support various career expos across campus, including ones that highlight the tech industry, environmental consulting, and energy each semester. These expos are widely attended by Jackson School students, and it is a great opportunity to meet other UT students.
