18 upcoming Updated

About these events

These are the upcoming career fairs and job fairs in Canada whose organizers say they welcome youth. Some are held just for youth; others are open to everyone and make a point of including them. Each listing links to the organizer's page, where you can check who can attend and how to register.

Tips before you go

  • If this is your first job, list school projects, volunteering and sports on your resume. They show reliability and teamwork.
  • 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.
