Employers participating in the 2024 Annual Meeting Career Fair will be able to:
- Provide recruitment materials and display their brand in a fun and energetic setting.
- Schedule their own on-site interviews at reserved tables or private interview booths.
- Promote their organization and meet highly qualified, diverse candidates.
- Connect with jobseekers before the meeting.
- Use INFORMS Career Center scheduling tools to set interviews prior to the event or on-site.
