The annual Fox Cities Employment Fair, will be held 10 am – 2pm, Tuesday, March 18, 2025 at the Fox Cities Exhibition Center, 355 W Lawrence Street, Appleton. Employers from across the region will feature a wide mix of available positions including office, service, logistics, manufacturing, healthcare, and other professional positions. In just four hours, job seekers can meet with more than 75 of the region’s employer representatives.
“We welcome any and all job seekers to attend the fair. We’ve worked hard to make this year’s event a great mix of companies and positions” says Anthony Snyder, CEO of Fox Valley Workforce Development Board.
Companies will be recruiting for a variety of roles at the fair: entry level or more skilled, seasonal, temporary, full and part-time. All job seekers regardless of age, education and work experience are welcome. Some employers may offer on-site interviews while others will be accepting resumes and will schedule interviews at a later date.
“Too often, job seekers feel like they’re sending resumes into an abyss,” said Snyder, “You might apply and hear nothing. Where else can you meet with more than 75 employers face-to-face in just one day?
“From talking to companies, we know that some companies have a few positions available and others have dozens of available positions; in addition, companies might know of future openings that are not yet posted, so we encourage job seekers to talk to as many of the company representatives as possible,” said Snyder. “If any job seeker is unsure about how to approach a company booth, all they need to do is say, ‘tell me a bit more about your positions and the company will likely take the conversation from there. Employers want you and are going to be interested in learning more about your skills and how it aligns with their positions.”
There is no dress code for the event, but job seekers are encouraged to dress for the role they are seeking and are urged to bring updated resumes. A complete list of all current employers registered can be found on the Fox Valley Workforce Development Board web site at www.foxvalleywork.org.
