Virtual Career Fairs

What are Virtual Career Fairs?

A virtual career fair, or online job fair, is a virtual event that allows employers to connect with job seekers in a virtual environment, rather than a physical one. 

Attending a career fair can be daunting for any job seeker, however, virtual career fairs are transforming the way in which job seekers and potential employers interact. Using interactive features such as webinar presentations, webcasts, live chat, chat rooms and more, virtual career fairs are breaking down geographical barriers and extending their reach.

Virtual job fairs offer job seekers the freedom and flexibility to interact directly with potential employers, so they can make more informed career decisions - all that’s needed to attend is a computer or mobile device with a good internet connection.
