"Over 2000 visitors attended the 2 day job fair, with backgrounds in IT and different fields of Engineering. Over 400 discussions with passers-by proved fruitful, leaving recruiters to sort through over 300 CV’s of interested and qualified candidates.
ABB was able to offer an HR perspective as well as that of Engineers in the positions we often recruit for.
Recruiters Tara de Jonge and Maya Toussaint conversing with potential ABB employees.
ABB Canada currently has over 200 positions available and job fairs are just one part of our current recruitment strategy. Meeting people face to face gives a personality to a CV that may normally be overlooked."
