THE FUTURE OF ONLINE JOB FAIRS

Abstract

Organizations appeal to job fairs in order to be connected with potential future employees. We discovered that companies participate at job fairs with a view to reaching several objectives, like: contracting and finding new colleagues, consultants and even partners, to increase their data base with resumes, to deploy on spot interviews, to hold webinars and coaching sessions for those interested and also to increase brand awareness for the companies. In this study, we are trying to analyze how online job fairs appeared and developed due to pandemic restrictions and war times. In addition, the shift towards digital meetings and even work have started before the CoVid-19 Pandemic due to different factors. Due to the restrictions imposed, even more businesses have moved to the online environment. Furthermore, even events have switched to online events. In this study, we have discovered how online job fairs are perceived, and that the future of events belongs to hybrid and extreme digitalization as using virtual reality, holograms and with the help of AI software’s too.
