When searching for a new job, putting yourself out there can be intimidating.
Career or job fairs have long been a staple of the job search and recruiting process. AgCareers.com launched virtual/online career fairs in 2016, and the popularity accelerated during the pandemic. Virtual career fairs are here to stay with the flexibility and timesaving benefits they offer. Plus, most job seekers say that virtual fairs are just as good, or even better, than in-person fairs!
Virtual career fairs allow attendees to take part on their schedule, from wherever they are. No need to be a tech wiz, as long as you have a device with internet access, you’re good to go! Drop in when you can and visit employer’s online booths, chat, message, audio or video communications with prospective employers.
AgCareers.com launched the Feed Your Future campaign, a series of virtual career fairs across North America to connect job seekers with employers hiring. We encourage you to register for one or more of these virtual career fairs that begin October 14, 2021; get yourself out there and ease your way into the career fair scene. Register for a regional event specific to your location, and our Skill & Trade Career Fair in 2022. View the full calendar of Feed Your Future Virtual Career Fairs and register now.
