Career Day

The Nicholls State University Office of Career Services hosts the Annual Career Day in the Cotillion Ballroom of the Bollinger Memorial Student Union. More than 70 companies attend, bringing students in direct contact with local, state and national employers to explore job opportunities. Career Day also benefits the companies that participate. Nicholls produces talented students, many of which would be great assets to their companies. Career Day also has faculty and staff involvement, along with campus student organization participation. A cross section of Nicholls’ alumni also participates.
