It is almost that time of year again when concourses fill with excited students looking for their next opportunity. A career fair is a fantastic way to engage with early talent, whether in a four-month co-op position or a full-time job. After all, hiring post-secondary talent is a great way to build and nurture the leaders of tomorrow and grow a successful business.<\/p>\n\n

Why Are Career Fairs Important?<\/h2>\n\n

As new companies enter the Toronto Region<\/a> market, it’s often important to make their mark on the ecosystem by attending events, networking with the local community, and ensuring their brand becomes well-known locally. Attending a university or college career opportunity is a great way to get in front of young talent, but it\u2019s also a great branding opportunity. Showing the talent of tomorrow who you are as a company today will ultimately benefit your business’s future.<\/p>\n\n

Which Career Fairs Near Me are Coming Up?<\/h2>\n\n

We are putting together a full calendar of winter 2023 and sharing it with our clients. One such event is the University of Toronto YNCN Engineering Career Opportunity, sometimes known as the YNCN Career Fair<\/a>. Your Next Career Network (YNCN) is a student group focused on career development within the engineering faculty. With a membership of over 5,000 engaged students, YNCN helps to provide opportunities to students by running career development events and connections to employers.<\/p>\n\n

How Can a Career Fair Benefit Your Business?<\/h2>\n\n

In the fall of 2022, YNCN welcomed 2,500 students and 70 top companies and successfully created an environment where both parties could engage in meaningful conversations. UofT is responsible for producing some of the country\u2019s top STEM candidates, so there is no better opportunity to meet potential candidates, talk about the exciting work that they could be doing, and showcase your company’s brand.<\/p>\n\n

Our client, Snowflake<\/a> took advantage of UofT\u2019s Fall fair and gave nothing but rave reviews. \u201cConnecting with new talent really cemented our place here in the Toronto tech scene,\u201d said Harvinder Jammu, Executive Operations \u2013 Engineering, Snowflake. \u201cIt can be hard to find the right talent as a company operating and hiring in a new city. The University of Toronto gave us the opportunity to connect with some local, talented candidates, that we could bring on board to help build our team!\u201d<\/p>\n\n
