Ready to Work? These Employers are Hiring!
Job fairs are one of the most powerful — and often overlooked — ways to meet real employers, uncover new opportunities, and make a lasting impression beyond an online application. Whether you’re searching for your very first role or looking to make a bold career move, the right job fair can open doors you didn’t even realize were there. With several exciting events just around the corner, now is the perfect time to explore what’s ahead and start planning your next big step.
Social Security's Ticket to Work Program supports people ages 18 through 64 who receive SSDI or SSI at every stage of their path to work. Even if you find a job on your own, the Ticket Program can still help you build your skills and confidence. Service providers can offer resume reviews, interview practice, help with workplace accommodations, and guidance as you plan for your financial future. They’re also ready to help you make the most of new opportunities, including job fairs happening in your area.
Below is a sample of this month’s career fairs, both online and across the country. To get full details about any event and to register, use the links provided.
