2008 PhillyMagnet Career Fair

Recruiters
Connect your company with Greater Philadelphia’s brightest talent! Be part of the PhillyMagnet Career Fair, powered by the Greater Philadelphia Chamber of Commerce and The Philadelphia Inquirer, Daily News and philly.com/Monster. Meet diverse job candidates who are looking for employment opportunities with the region’s top companies.

Together, the Chamber and The Inquirer, Daily News and philly.com/Monster offer you a powerful opportunity to reach not just the most candidates but the best. Our last PhillyMagnet Career Fair, held on January 17, 2007, attracted more than 100 exhibitors and over 4,000 quality job candidates from a wide range of industries. Their experience levels were evenly distributed among three groups: high school and entry-level, mid career (2+ years) and management/executive level. The talent pool was comprised of a 50/50 ratio of men and women from a mix of ethnic backgrounds, with veterans representing nearly 10% of the job seekers.

The PhillyMagnet Career Fair will be promoted with a four-month campaign of print, electronic and online media that sells the excitement of our region as it highlights the opportunities you offer.

The April 23 Career Fair will be touted in a special section, Building a Greater Philadelphia Region, in the Sunday Inquirer on Sunday April 20 – a section that will reach more job seekers than any other media in the region. AND, this fair will be promoted in the famous Inquirer Mega Job Section appearing on Sunday, January 13.

Sign on and all this power goes to work for you. For exhibitor information, call 215-854-4140 or e-mail: careerfairs@phillynews.com.
