Career Fair Testimonials

Loved it. General job fairs have individuals "looking" to see what's out there. Your RecruitMilitary fair has serious applicants. Love the caliber of people in the show.

Boston Career Fair -- Insurance Recruiter

Come prepared. Companies loved that I showed up knowing even a little about their company. Companies were actively seeking to fit me within their organizations, even if my background was not directly in line with their product.

Boston -- Navy E-6

Everyone was very friendly, starting from the hosts at the entrance. They were very professional and conscious about our needs to start a new career or new job.
