Employer Engagement

Partner with Lerner Career Services to connect with our talented business students. Whether you’re looking to recruit top co-ops or mentor the next generation of business leaders, we’ll help you make meaningful connections that create lasting impact.

The Executive Mentoring Program pairs executives with 10+ years of progressive experience with a student with complementary career goals for a formal mentoring relationship. Mentors provide guidance and facilitate opportunities to expand their student mentee’s network.

Lerner Edge Connect offers students a one-time, 30-minute micro-mentoring session on topics like resumes, interviewing or job search. Advisors in this program are UD alumni.

The Professional Attire Fund provides financial support to approved students for the acquisition of professional attire for upcoming interviews, job searches, internships or leadership opportunities. Sponsor this initiative by making a gift to Lerner. Please select “Lerner College of Business and Economics Career Services” to ensure your gift directly supports the professional attire fund.

The Lerner Co-op Program connects employers with undergraduate students for a paid, 9–12 month role. Employers hire and pay students directly while Lerner provides candidate screening and interview prep.

Lerner Career Services looks forward to introducing you to our talented business students. Employers can register on Handshake to share opportunities, attend career fairs, and participate in networking and professional development events. Reach out today to plan your engagement strategy.
