The Virtual Job Fair is an innovative approach offered entirely on-line for recruiting top quality job seekers direct to your business customers. Created by Brevard Workforce Development Board, Inc., the Virtual Job Fair (VJF) allows Workforce Investment Boards to offer:

  • A web based, 24 hour - 7 day event (or whatever configuration of time works for you)
  • A virtual booth for your employers to provide a profile and to list their jobs with a secure online payment system
  • Sponsorship booths to provide a high profile on the site for a select group of employers
  • A local or national recruitment tool open to all industries or targeted to a select group. (You can hold the VJF up to 12 times a year. )
  • Gain wider exposure for your business customers with today’s Internet savvy job seekers who can search the listings at a time that works best for them. Great for those already employed and looking for a better job.
  • A low cost, low staff impact to businesses who participate
  • A database of all resume’s collected is delivered to all businesses participating in the fair at it’s conclusion

Plus, we will provide:

  • Customer support to help get your job fair up and running and assist with any questions along the way
  • A Marketing Kit detailing proven tactics to attract job seekers to your VJF and templates of collateral including 2  direct mailers (employer and job seeker), poster, 2 print ads in different sizes, and a cable ad all ready for you to insert your logos and contact information. A press release and PSA are also included.
  • An administrative system that allows WIB staff to assist employers with setting up their booths incluing profile information, job listings and logo. Reporting available for traffic to booths, job listings and the VJF, in general.

What you need to get started:

  • A desire to generate revenue for your WIB without the need for heavy staff involvement
