Navigating the landscape of job opportunities in agriculture and food sectors across Canada has been made easier with  AgCareers.com’s innovative virtual career fairs.

Kicking off on October 23, 2024, the Feed Your Future Virtual Career Fair series serves as a bridge between top agri-food employers and potential candidates, enhancing recruitment strategies and opening doors for job seekers nationwide.

The upcoming virtual career fair season, running until March 2025, is an initiative designed to tackle the competitive job market by leveraging the convenience and reach of digital platforms.

“Through our mission of feeding the world with talent, we're committed to providing accessible digital recruitment and talent solutions,” explains Kathryn Doan, CVO Director of AgCareers.com.

The career fairs are a critical tool for recruitment, catering to a wide range of roles crucial to the industry, from on-farm positions to specialized jobs in labs and corporate offices, both on-site and remote.

AgCareers.com’s partnership with notable agriculture events, such as Canada’s Outdoor Farm Show and the Royal Agricultural Winter Fair, highlights the fairs' significance and their role in supporting the agri-food sector's growth. These collaborations underscore the fairs’ importance as an inclusive platform facilitating vital connections across the industry.

The virtual format of the career fairs means that no matter where a person is located, they have the chance to explore and apply for various roles without the need for travel, saving both time and resources.

Employers benefit from access to a broader pool of candidates, ensuring they find the best fit for their needs without the limitations of geography.

As the season approaches, both seasoned professionals and those new to the field are encouraged to register for the Feed Your Future virtual career fairs.
