Your input matters: Share your career and employer interests
April 29, 2026
You're invited to participate in the optional 2026 Student Career Interests Survey,a national study exploring what students think about careers and employers. Your input helps employers better understand how to attract and hire students like you, and helps us improve the support and opportunities we offer.
The survey will take about 15 to 20 minutes to complete.
Please note: All responses will be treated as confidential and not be associated with your identity in any way.
As a thank you, you can choose to enter a draw after completing the survey for a chance to win a $500 Best Buy gift card or 1 of 10 $100 cash prizes. Since the survey is anonymous, be sure to provide your contact information if you wish to be entered!
Survey tip: You may find it quicker and easier to complete the survey on a computer rather than your mobile device, though either works well.
