Free Career Fairs in Canada
About these events
These upcoming career fairs and job fairs in Canada are listed as free for job seekers on the organizer's page. Some still ask you to register ahead of time, so check each official page before you go.
Tips before you go
- Send a short thank-you email within 24 hours to each person you spoke with, and mention something from your conversation.
- Open with your 30-second introduction, then ask what the team is hiring for right now.
- Apply online to the roles employers pointed you to, and mention that you met them at the fair.
- Practise a 30-second introduction: who you are, what you do well and the kind of role you want next.
- After each conversation, write down the person's name, the role you discussed and what to follow up on.
