Monster Launches Virtual Job Fair

Online fair to enable UK and Ireland job seekers to interact virtually with potential new employers

Monster, the premier global online employment solution, is launching a Virtual Job Fair in the UK and Ireland from October 1 – 14. The fair expects 120,000 job seekers to attend over a two-week period and is designed to match top-quality jobs with the most suitable candidates by offering online compatibility tests. This will enable show visitors to quickly find companies looking to recruit candidates with their specific profiles. Visitors will also be able to submit their CVs to prospective employers and interact with them in real time by video and instant chat.

Companies will rent virtual booths and chat with candidates to discuss details of vacancies and to help fill their roles. They will also benefit from a 24 hour message sending service and real-time management of their virtual booths.

Julian Acquari, managing director, Monster UK and Ireland, commented, ìDespite the current climate, there are still jobs available across multiple sectors, and it is more important than ever for vacancies to be matched up with the best candidates. Monsterís Virtual Job Fair is a great way for job seekers to access a range of recruiting companies, and has already seen considerable success in France. Being online, it gives visitors the flexibility of being able to attend the fair when it suits them.î
