As an employer I'll tell you what the problem is: there's too many universities and all of them have different UIs. I'm only reaching out to the professors I know and they'll figure out how to advertise the jobs to their students. Career fairs? Even worse, who has the time to do that? We just want to increase our funnel, not increase the time it takes to reach out to junior engineers.
The proposal in these kind of situations is to have common job boards (like Who's hiring on HN) and check there. Students should do that and not assume that employers will come to them.
Good professors have relationships with the industry and will preemptively reach out for their students (that's what my professors did in my uni back in France).
The reverse API could also work, have a standard that all universities follow so that one can easily post job descriptions to all relevant universities.
