Where to find new-grad software engineer jobs in the US

Updated 2026-11-07 · numbers from OpeningsFirst’s count of employers’ own career pages, refreshed daily.

Short answer: new-grad and entry-level software jobs show up on company career pages first, often weeks before campus fairs or job boards list them. Today 1,957 entry-level software engineer jobs are open on US employers' own sites, 209 of them posted in the last 7 days.

Where to look

1. Employers' careers pages: search "new grad", "university", "early career" or "entry level", and check weekly; many big employers open their new-grad roles in batches.
2. An alert that reads career pages, filtered to entry level and your role, so you see a batch the day it opens.
3. Your university's career portal for on-campus programs.

Questions

When do companies post new-grad software jobs?

Many post them in batches on their own careers sites through the year; checking career pages weekly, or with an alert, catches each batch the day it opens.
