COVID-19 turned into a Tsunami and has engulfed many lives. At the same time, it has taught us many mindful things and revolutionized our thoughts both personally and professionally.
It compelled us to think differently and
helped us break free from the old, monotonous norms we followed repeatedly and
religiously.
With the onset of the pandemic, physical
interactions came to an end. Thus, one such belief that existed, which stated
that in-person interactions were essential, ended.
One of the main issues faced by companies due
to this, which also put their HR departments in a dilemma, was that employees
were resigning, and HR was unable to conduct their hiring process for new
employees. This incident led to Virtual Career Fairs stepping into the scene,
allowing prospective employers and job applicants to come together remotely.
Thus, doomsday was averted.
A big thanks to the companies who assisted career fair organizers in conducting their virtual events and making it a grand success.
The virtual Career fair is a social gathering
where prospective employers and employees interact on a virtual platform.
Here are a few points to highlight the key benefits of Virtual Career
Fairs: -

world to work with them.

variants, can also be ensured virtually as there is no concern about masking
