Careerin is organizing online career fairs to connect tech talents open for new jobs and tech companies that are hiring. We noticed that lots of companies laid off staff because of COVID19 but there are still companies that are hiring.

Careerin is a new startup that's using videos to help candidates learn more about tech companies, their mission, culture, and people in the teams so they can find the companies that they aligned with. During the online career fair, companies will have founders or hiring managers that talk about what their companies are about in videos and they will have online meeting sessions with candidates that are interested in joining them.

Candidates can create a self-intro video on our platform that can be accessed by the companies that they are interested in, so they can tell their stories in person in the video instead of being another resume in the pile.

Students will help us in organizing and running our monthly Careerin Tech online event.

Roles include:

Event sessions host - Identify and recruit speakers to share career insights or other topics in their roles (HR/Marketing/Sales/Software Engineering etc), host these online sessions by introducing their speakers if it's a webinar or interviewer if it's a fireside chat interview

Job fair organizer - Reach out to tech companies that are hiring

Marketing + PR - Event promotion in our social media channels, other tech communities, and tech medias

Sponsorship - Reach out to potential sponsors to secure sponsorship for our events (professional firms, tech companies, etc)
