Volunteer Opportunities

Be the first to meet and greet employers, organizations, agencies or school districts attending career fairs, Graduate and Professional School Fair or Educators' Job Fair each year. Serve as an ambassador for New Mexico State University and the Career Services Office. Volunteers receive service credit for their campus organization, continental breakfast, refreshments, and excellent exposure to employers.

Volunteers are an essential element in providing excellent customer service to our employer guests. Business casual is the recommended attire while serving as a volunteer during these events. Contact the event coordinator at hireNMSU@nmsu.edu or call 575-646-1631 to register yourself or your group as a fair volunteer.
