Journalism Career Fair – 2026

The 2026 NYU Journalism Career Fair will be held on Friday, April 10th, from 11 am – 3 pm (and virtual on April 17th.)
The annual NYU Journalism Career Fair brings recruiters from top media companies. It’s an exclusive event only for NYU Journalism majors, MA students and alumni. If you want a job or internship in journalism, this is a must-attend event! RSVP is required. (Password via listserv.)
The in-person 2026 NYU Journalism Career Fair will be held on April 10, 2026, at the Arthur L. Carter Journalism Institute at 20 Cooper Square. Students and alumni will have the opportunity to participate in one-on-one sessions with representatives from top media organizations to discuss jobs, internships, freelance opportunities and learn more about each company. (It’s also a great chance to seek advice from experts in the field, even if they don’t have openings for you.)
We’ll also have a virtual NYU Journalism Career Fair via Handshake on April 17. This is open to NYU Journalism minors, majors, MA students and alumni all over the world. See companies below.
