Electronic Job Fair(s)
An
ELECTRONIC JOB FAIR is very similar to a traditional
job fair. They are a place for employers and job seekers to meet, one-on-one, to discuss
employment opportunities the attending employers may have for the attending job seekers. The difference with an electronic job fair is that the employers and job seekers meet each other one-on-one by logging on to a
website that hosts the electronic job fair. Like a traditional job fair, electronic job fairs are held on specific days during specific hours. Unlike a “virtual” job fair, these events are live and fully interactive.
A relatively new concept, there are several companies who offer these fairs. The most notable one is eJobFairs.net LLC eJobFairs.net has been doing electronic job fairs since 2005and are one of the only companies that does exclusively job related electronic fairs. There are also companies that do them as part of a larger offering of electronic trade shows such as inexpo and unisfair
Catching on, these types of events are growing in popularity and use, being used by Colleges and Fortune 500 companies alike.
