INFORMATION FOR JOB SEEKERS

The 2021 Anchorage City-Wide Career & Job Fair is happening virtually on Wednesday & Thursday, April 28th & 29th, 2021! This fair is free and open to the public, registration is required for access. RSVP below!

 

We will be using a web-based platform called Premier Virtual. Check out their website to learn a little more about the platform and check out this link for a walkthrough of what the event will look like from the job seeker perspective. Includes helpful tips about creating a profile, uploading resumes, and interacting with employers.

​

Even though this event is virtual, job seekers should be professionally dressed in case the employer wants to video chat with you and with digital copies of your resume ready to send to employers and to upload to your profile.

​

There will be two sessions on each day to allow employers and job-seekers to avoid screen fatigue:

  • Morning: 10am-noon

  • Afternoon: 2pm-4pm
