Career ServicesCareer fairs & employer connections

Run a career fair where every student finds the right employer - and you can prove it.

Guidebook replaces your printed booth guide with a live app: searchable by major, updated in real time, with engagement data you can actually use. Give employers post-fair data on which students viewed their profile. Track which booths got traffic and which ones didn't.

Trusted by leading career centers at top U.S. colleges Why career fairs fall apart - and how to stop it

The printed guide was alphabetical. The room layout changed Wednesday morning. The 50 employers you moved upstairs, and the students who never knew there was a second floor.

Drop the printed booth guide

A searchable app filters by major, industry, or role. Students find the right employers in under 10 seconds, not after wandering the floor for 20 minutes.

End the "where is booth 47" loop

Floor maps, booth numbers, and turn-by-turn directions live in the app. Update once, and every student in the venue sees it.

Every booth. Every major. One map.

1 template

copied fair to fair, season to season

Every fair your office runs. One app.

The all-majors fair with 175 employers. The niche education fair with 30. The career summit for employers and faculty. The leadership conference your office also owns. Run all of them on Guidebook, copy the template fair-to-fair, and stop rebuilding everything from scratch.

Every booth, on a real floor map

The arena floor plan. The second-floor breakout rooms. The career summit ballroom. Every employer pinned to a real spot in the venue, with booth numbers and turn-by-turn directions. The marketing student stops asking "where is booth 47" and starts asking real questions.

From "get ready" to "stay close"

Get ready: employer profiles, resume prep, fair-day previews. On campus: real-time booth changes, employer cancellations, line lengths. Stay close: post-fair employer follow-up reminders, application links, summer-internship nudges. The career fair becomes a career conversation, not a Saturday afternoon.

See which fairs actually worked

Average time in app. Items tapped per session. Comments and likes on employer profiles. Which majors showed up, which employer profiles got dwell time, which booths students never reached. Build next year's pitch to employers on data, not gut feel.
