Thousands of students took part in the event, where they got the opportunity to directly interact with companies and advance their career prospects. The primary objective of the event was to connect students with the industry and provide them with better career opportunities. During the job fair, students engaged with company representatives, appeared for interviews and many received on-the-spot job and internship offers, clearly highlighting the success of the event.

This year, ‘Avasar 2026’ saw participation from companies across various sectors, including corporates, startups, non-profit organizations, consulting agencies and research institutions. More than 4,000 students from undergraduate and postgraduate programs attended the event, making it even more extensive and impactful.

During the program, DU Vice-Chancellor Professor Yogesh Singh stated that such job fairs are highly beneficial for students.
