Candidates will see a list of everyone that is in the room. First names and last initials only. Recruiters will be able to see the candidate’s full name.

Click on the ‘Job Board’ tab and review the job postings. Note, not all organizations post positions.
Absolutely. Some organizations use the Virtual Event as a method to collect resumes and identify interested candidates. By applying to job postings or programs, and/or noting your interest in a specific organization through your account, the organization will be alerted to look at your resume. Representatives then have the option to follow-up directly with candidates that match their criteria subsequent to the virtual event.
Some organizations do not use the Virtual Career Fair to post their available jobs. In these cases, you should go directly to their website to search through their posted positions so you may ask questions about listings available on their internal careers pages.
Resumes are stored encrypted using Amazon S3. They are only available to organizations that participate in the events the candidate has signed up for. At any time, the candidate can either delete their resume or mark their account as private to remove their resumes from being accessible to those organizations. Any organization that had previously downloaded the resume however would still have access to their locally stored copy.
To hide this information, click on 'Profile', and scroll down to 'Preferences', then click the checkbox under 'Sharing'.
We store data on Amazon AWS (our cloud service provider) in US regions.
We do not delete accounts because candidates and organizations use our system for multiple events. By keeping their accounts open, candidates can simply log in and register for another event without having to upload all their documents again. We do have the ability to deactivate an account if requested. We also want to keep the resumes attached to a candidate's account post-event so that employers can follow-up with them for future opportunities. Candidates can choose to delete their resume or not upload one as well. We also have a GDPR function that clears personal data and deletes the user's documents.
