February Diversity Job Fairs

Typically, there are more diversity job fairs in Black History Month than those listed below. But the poor job market at the start of 2003 has likely caused employers and event producers to cut back on all events.

Still, it is not an exhaustive list of every diversity job fair, but rather only those that currently show up in a Web search. Please be sure to also check for diversity job fairs in your local newspapers, and watch and listen for them on your local radio and TV stations.

Check Diversity Job Fairs, Cultural Diversity (diversity career resources) and Women's Career Resources too, for events scheduled after this article was published. Also check Job and Career Fairs for all types of "regular" career events that are always equal opportunity, but not necessarily dubbed "diversity."

For success tips and nice-to-have resources for job fairs, such as driving maps and weather forecasts, see About Job Fairs, Strategies for Job Fairs and Ten Tips for Job Fairs.
