KEARNEY, Neb. (KSNB) - Sam Reimers is just a sophomore at the University of Nebraska at Kearney, but he’s already planning his professional career.

The industrial distribution major wants to work in heavy equipment sales, so he’s looking to connect with companies that specialize in this area. He found plenty of them Thursday during the Career and Internship Fair on campus.

Hosted in the spring and fall by UNK Academic Advising and Career Development, the event gives students from all majors and grade levels a chance to network with employers from across the region while learning more about internship and job opportunities. A total of 140 businesses, nonprofits, government agencies and graduate and professional schools were represented, allowing Lopers to explore careers in accounting, agribusiness, construction, finance, health care, law enforcement, marketing and many other fields.
