The Raleigh Job Fair on March 5, 2026 is an in-person hiring event designed to connect job seekers with employers who are actively hiring across Raleigh, the Research Triangle, and surrounding communities. If your job search has felt slow or impersonal, this event offers a more direct path—real conversations with recruiters and hiring managers who are looking to fill open positions now.
In-person job fairs allow you to move beyond online applications and automated systems. Instead of waiting for callbacks, you can introduce yourself professionally, explain your background, and ask questions that help you evaluate fit. Many candidates leave job fairs with specific next steps such as interview scheduling, recruiter follow-ups, or priority application instructions.
Employers attend job fairs to meet qualified candidates efficiently. Expect focused conversations, clarity on open roles, and guidance on how to move forward. Some employers may request online applications for tracking, while others may schedule interviews or connect you directly with hiring managers.
This event is open to entry-level candidates, experienced professionals, and career changers. It’s also ideal for individuals returning to the workforce who want a more personal way to present transferable skills such as communication, leadership, customer service, operations, and technical aptitude.
Participating employers may represent industries such as technology, healthcare, education, finance, customer service, sales, administration, logistics, operations, and management. Attending helps you compare employers quickly and focus your job search where your skills align best.
