Career Fair Testimonials

Well managed and put together. Exceeded expectations.

San Antonio -- Defense recruiter

The atmosphere was so positive and welcoming. I interviewed with USAA right there, which was spectacular for me. I have never attended such an all around positive job fair. You could feel respect in the air. It was such a great experience.

San Antonio -- Air Force Spouse

Great traffic of candidates made it a very successful event. Substantially more traffic and higher quality candidates than at other job fairs.
