Join the Kogod School of Business for our premier recruiting event—the Career Expo.

The registration link for the Fall 2026 Career Expo will be posted soon. For questions in the meantime, please email hirekogod@american.edu.
Kogod Coffee Chats provide an informal, conversation-based format for employers to connect with students one-on-one or in small groups. Employers have the flexibility to chat with students virtually or in person for 15-minute increments at a time that works for them. Students sign up for individual time slots, allowing for more meaningful conversations about career paths, company culture, and opportunities.

Share Your Knowledge
Your wisdom and experience are invaluable, and our students would greatly benefit from your insight!
Faculty always like to bring experts into the classroom! Our students love to hear from real people engaged in the industry, especially Kogod alumni. There are opportunities for everyone, from small business owners to large company CEOs, to share their expertise with our students.
Support Kogod students in developing their professional presence by volunteering for mock interviews or resume review sessions. These engagements are a valuable way to meet students early in their journey while helping them polish key career-readiness skills.
See Our Students in Action
There are so many ways to see Kogod students in action—playing a vital role in supporting your business objectives.
Give students a firsthand look at your organization by hosting a site visit. Career Treks connect students with professionals in their real work environments, offering insights into your company culture, career paths, and industry trends. These immersive experiences help students visualize their future and deepen interest in your organization.
Partner with Kogod to co-host business case competitions or real-world challenges that allow students to apply classroom knowledge in innovative ways. These events not only showcase student talent, but also give employers a platform to observe problem-solving, leadership, and collaboration in action.
In-class projects allow students to serve as consultants for real clients under a professor’s guidance. Clients communicate directly with the professor and student teams to accomplish the goals outlined in a statement of work. Students apply course concepts and strategize in real time as the project progresses, resulting in a set of deliverables for the client at the end of the course.
