The annual event invites job seekers and school leavers in the Bathurst community to gain an insight into potential career pathways suited to their skills.
CSU vice-chancellor Andrew Vann said the event will inform job seekers on the endless possibilities available in the realm of careers.
"It's a fantastic opportunity for them to gain some exposure towards a variety of careers and employers," Mr Vann said.
"Not everyone knows exactly what they want to do, so it's a chance for people to make connections."
As a major sponsor for the event, Mr Vann said the jobs expo will help enhance CSU's profile in the community.
"We have the best full-time employment rate out of all Australian universities, and we want to promote CSU's appeal in helping students find jobs," he said.
Bathurst mayor Graeme Hanger said council was excited to have CSU, as well as fellow sponsors Central West Careers Advisers Association and B-Rock, on board for the expo.
"We have almost 60 exhibitors coming along this year, and this event is terrific for job seekers," Mr Hanger said.
