Engage With the Jayhawk Career Network

From job opportunities to real-world projects, the Jayhawk Career Network has something to help you in your career journey. Take a look at some of the possibilities below.

KU Mentoring+, the university’s networking platform, connects you to thousands of other Jayhawks who can help you explore careers, industries, and opportunities.

View a list of businesses owned or led by Jayhawks, and apply to have your own business listed.

Read career news and updates from KU alumni, and submit your own to be featured in a future edition of Kansas Alumni magazine.

Search for a job on the KU Alumni job board, or post your opportunities for fellow Jayhawks.

Find additional resources such as campus career centers, LinkedIn groups, and more to help connect you with fellow Jayhawks.

HireJayhawks.com helps connect KU students, employers, career services offices, faculty and staff to help students achieve their career goals.

Just because you graduated doesn’t mean you stopped learning. As a Jayhawk, you have exclusive access to a range of online learning tools to support your career development.

The Water Cooler is a monthly newsletter for alumni, students and friends. It includes upcoming events, featured mentors, stories about alumni and students, jobs and more.

The annual event brings together Jayhawks in cities to connect over how their time at KU shaped their career, and how a Jayhawk connection could mean the next step.
