The Tourism & Jobs for U! Hiring Fairs are joining forces to create one high-energy event with more employers, more opportunities, and more ways to stand out.
Why this fair matters:
Today's job market is changing fast - with new technologies, shifting skill needs, and AI playing a growing role in recruitment. Employers aren't just looking for strong resumes anymore. They're looking for students who show adaptability, curiosity, and a willingness to engage.
Attending a hiring fair is one of the most effective ways to demonstrate exactly that.
What past attendees experienced:
- Many connected directly with employers and gained real insight into the "hidden job market."
- A large number were invited to interviews after the fair.
- And a meaningful portion developed those conversations into actual job opportunities in the months that followed.
What you'll gain by attending:
- Meet employers face-to-face
- Apply for opportunities in person!
- Learn how AI is shaping hiring and the skills in demand
- Explore new and emerging career paths
- Understand what today's hiring managers value most
The workplace is evolving - and your career will evolve with it. The more insight and connection you build now, the stronger your path forward.
Register today and step into a more dynamic Hiring Fair experience!
