Hey! Do you need help finding a job? Not sure how to utilize that AmeriCorps experience on you resume?

On June 30, 2015, from 1 - 4 p.m. (EDT), public, private and nonprofit employers will be available to connect with during The AmeriCorps Alums Virtual Career Fair. According to the national alum website, "All employers at the fair have open career opportunities and recruiters available to talk with you as you network from the comfort of your home, office, smartphone or tablet."

Register for the fair today and you’ll have the ability to explore employer information and opportunities before the fair begins. Choose which employers you want to interact with and research them and their open positions before the fair. Click here for our FAQs on best practices for finding a job and making a connection at the fair. 

During the fair, engage in one-on-one text-based conversations directly with a recruiter at those organizations. You can share your background, experience, and resume and then ask questions. Maximize your time in the event by getting in line to chat with representatives from more than one company at a time. Many of the employers participating in this event will be Employers of National Service (EONS). Aimed at creating recruitment, hiring, and advancement opportunities for national service alumni, EONS is a new initiative of AmeriCorps Alums, CNCS, Peace Corps and the Franklin Project to support your professional life after national service.

This Online Career Fair connects you in real time with employers seeking to recruit top talent.
We encourage you to attend if you are …

-    Seeking new career opportunities or exploring career options,
-    Ready to begin your career, or
-    Conducting a diverse, nationwide job search

Take the next leap forward in your career, and register for the AmeriCorps Alums Virtual Career Fair today.
