Testimonials from our Partnering Employers

"Thanks again for hosting another very successful event. Your staff was accommodating and professional as always. We appreciate the invitation and look forward to participating in future events. "

"It was great pleasure to work with your outstanding staff! We greatly appreciate your incredible hospitality anytime we attend one of your events. They always go seamlessly, and we really enjoy ourselves & the new relationships we’re able to build. This job fair was no different, it was incredibly successful. We met some many potential applicants that were eager to learn more about us and what we do. Please continue to forward me any info for upcoming events. We look forward to participating in the future!"

"Our recruiters experienced a steady stream of quality candidates – we look forward to participating in this event!" 

"Wow, it was slammed. We didn't stop for 4 hours. We were grateful to have water and cookies passed out in the midst of it. Next time I'll have to bring about 4 more people to assist, maybe some on the hiring committee from local stores. Also, when we have a new store opening, it'd be ideal to attend one for some major recruiting. We were able to instruct the candidates on how to apply at the stores by using xxxx. We received quite a few resumes, some we can look at for mgmt., and some we'll send to the stores to look at when they apply online for positions at store level, so we're pleased with our results."

"It was a great fair! We passed out over 700 applications and took in 100 resumes which we're reviewing now."

"The job fair was a huge success for us. Thank you so much for all your help. We would like to sign up for the next one, absolutely."

"We collected about 30 resumes, interviewed about 15, and had 5 job seekers contract with us. We are so pleased with the Career Fair and how organized it was. Definitely one of the top career fairs we have been a part of. "

"Already had 2 people come by my office this morning and have 2 more scheduled for Monday. I think perhaps 10 in total will be up and running before much longer, which is really great. Thanks."

"I think the job fair was quite busy yesterday but was very organized. Thanks for a great event. With all of the different groups represented yesterday, we would hope to recruit and hire approximately 30 people."

"We had an amazing time, I'm so impressed. I can easily say we had about 80 applicants. We are currently reviewing all the application for qualification, but I will keep you posted on a final number of potentials and final hires"

"We collected 88 sales resumes for our open positions and a number of those candidates attended our on site job fair today. Thanks again!"

"Thank you for your support during the CFEC job fair - we appreciate all the hard work you and your team put into the job fair. I am confident in sharing that the event was a success for us. We had to be the most popular booth at the event; our line was reported by candidates of being around 45 minutes. Many candidates were scheduled on the spot to come in for interviews. I anticipate approximately 8 new hires from the event. P.S. The cookies your team shares during/after the event are simply divine!"
