What is Nursing Career Day?

Nursing Career Day is an annual event sponsored by the University of Pennsylvania’s Career Services and School of Nursing. The University of Pennsylvania School of Nursing offers BSN, MPN, MSN, DNP and Ph.D. degrees. Employers from across the country are invited to meet with our nursing students and alumni. Participate in this in-person career fair to enjoy these featured advantages:

  • ACCESS TOP TALENT: Penn undergraduate and graduate nursing students are driven and engaged with interests in clinical practice and research. They bring with them strong skills applicable to careers in nursing and health.
  • INCREASE YOUR ORGANIZATION’S RECOGNITION: Use this public, student-facing opportunity to continue cementing your organization’s branding.
  • ESTABLISH AND MAINTAIN A PRESENCE AT PENN: Build a recruiting pipeline for future nursing candidates.

Penn’s nursing students are eager to make a connection with employers interested in their wide range of clinical, organizational, interpersonal, and technical skills. Take this opportunity to participate in this event, and you can be confident that you will find the high caliber of students that you are seeking.

The Format

For this in-person event, each registered employer will have 2 chairs and a 6-foot table for handouts, information, and displays, as well as a sign identifying the organization. Students and alumni will speak to employers at the tables. Employers with specific job opportunities can identify these during the registration process by uploading positions to Handshake, and then easily linking to these during the registration process. These opportunities will be highlighted in the career fair booklet, and in the pre-event outreach and marketing to students and postdocs interested in attending the fair. Information on shipping for supplies related to the career fair will be shared when registrations are confirmed.

For a virtual career fair option, Penn is also hosting an All-Industries Virtual Fair on Friday, September 20, 2024; details can be found HERE.
