A total of 30 enterprises, companies, and organisations participated in the Fair, offering over one thousand job vacancies in the areas of banking and finance, e-commerce,  education and training, hospitality, human resources, retail, transportation, high-tech services, public service, and social service.

The Opening Ceremony of the USJ Career Fair 2025 was held in the morning at the USJ Fátima Auditorium.

During the ceremony, Prof. Jenny Oliveros Lao Phillips, Dean of the Faculty of Business and Law (FBL) of USJ, and Mr. Carlos Cid Álvares, President of the Portugal-China Chamber of Commerce and Industry (CCILC), signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) on the cooperation between both institutions that will provide further career and training opportunities for the USJ/FBL students with CCILC. The signing ceremony marked another milestone in fostering academic-industry cooperation.

The USJ Career Fair provides students with a face-to-face platform, assisting them, along with USJ alumni, in reaching out to potential employers. The participants can directly find and apply for their desired jobs, submit their CVs, and request consultation from employers present on the day. The employers can also share the information and details of job vacancies through exhibition booths and invite candidates to join interviews.

In order to further assist students to grasp the latest employment developments, USJ has also organised a seminar on the 14th March on the topic of “Youth Employment Services and Introduction to Specialised Employment Schemes”, inviting representatives from the Labour Affairs Bureau, MelcoBoA and MGM MACAU to give lectures on the topic. The seminar covered the latest trends of the local job market, youth employment support services and introduction of special employment programmes, aiming to provide students with practical career guidance and advice on future career planning.

On the 18th of March, the Judiciary Police was also invited to give a talk on career development and introduce to students the recruitment of Criminal Investigator II, as well as share with students practical cases. Through the “Recruitment Seminar for Tertiary Graduates”, the seminar encourages young people to think about their career choices, find their own sense of mission, and realise the value of their lives to serve the society.
