Career Fair
ATTENTION #NABJNAHJ20 EXHIBITORS: In the virtual environment, you will no longer need to place any exhibitor kit orders. If you have any questions, please contact vdodson@nabj.org.
The #NABJNAHJ20 Career Fair has historically been the largest career expo for journalists and media professionals of color in the country. Our inaugural Virtual Career Fair will maintain that distinction.
The #NABJNAHJ20 Virtual Career Fair will take place Aug. 5-7, 2020. The Career Fair showcases the tremendous range of news organizations operating today, from journalism schools to digital startups looking for journalists and media-related professionals for their newsrooms.
The companies that attend the Career Fair and Exhibit Hall are seeking to fill full-time positions, internships and freelance assignments and/or provide valuable information and resources on topics of interest. Employers seek candidates to cover a range of subject areas including health and science, business and economics, investigative journalism, sports, weather, media, technology, politics and government, general assignment, race and justice, metro and community news, arts, culture and entertainment, food, travel and fashion, international news and more.
