By Maura Rurak From the National Business Employment Weekly Related Links CareerCity JobWeb High Tech Careers CFG Inc. To land jobs, most candidates read classified ads, visit Internet employment sites and network with colleagues. If you think job fairs are only for entry-level candidates and don t offer opportunities for executives, you re wrong.
Positions are available at all levels.
Best of all, companies are there because they need new talent. Attending a job fair can be a win-win situation for candidates and employers. For instance, each of the 120 companies at TechExpo, a fair held in Manhattan last month for computer and technical professionals, had immediate multiple openings, says Bradford Rand, president of Job Expo International, the New York-based parent company of TechExpo. Candidates can distribute resumes and meet recruiters for numerous companies at a single event. It s very time-effective.
