Why attend a Hartford job fair?

Recruiters, branch managers and talent-acquisition leads from Hartford employers attend with live requisitions and hiring authority.
Multiple first-round conversations in one afternoon
Three hours in one room replaces weeks of online applications. Many exhibitors run short screening interviews at their tables and book follow-ups before the event closes.

Hartford job fair FAQs
The questions candidates ask us most before their first event.
Are Choice Career Fairs free for job seekers to attend in Hartford?
Yes. Admission is 100% free for every job seeker. Advance online registration is recommended because it produces a digital VIP pass for expedited QR check-in at the door.
What should I wear to the career fair?
Business professional or neat business casual attire is strongly recommended. First impressions matter when you meet hiring managers face to face.
What should I bring with me?
Bring 10 to 15 printed copies of your updated resume, a pen and notepad or portfolio, and a valid photo ID. Printed resumes are still the fastest way to leave an application with a recruiter.
Do I need to arrive right at 11:00 AM?
Doors open at 11:00 AM and stay open until 2:00 PM. Arriving before 1:00 PM gives you enough time to visit every employer booth and follow up on promising conversations.
Are employers interviewing on site?
Many participating employers hold short preliminary screening conversations at their tables and schedule formal follow-up interviews before the event closes.
Can I attend if I am currently employed and exploring quietly?
Yes. Thousands of attendees each year are passively job searching. Bring a resume and speak with the employers whose roles match your goals — there is no obligation to share your current employer.
