The Indianapolis Carmel Anderson metro is a major Midwest employment center, with strong job numbers in professional and business services, health care and social assistance, trade/transportation/utilities, manufacturing, financial activities, and government. At the same time, competition for the best roles can be intense. When you only apply online, your résumé can easily get lost. Our in-person Indianapolis job fairs help you stand out by putting you directly in front of employers who are actively hiring now.

We keep the process straightforward so you can focus on making strong connections.

On event day:

• Arrive at Holiday Inn Indianapolis Carmel, 251 Pennsylvania Pkwy, Carmel, IN 46280.
• Plan to arrive a little early to park, check in, and get oriented. The hotel is conveniently located near major highways serving Carmel and the north side of Indianapolis.
• Bring multiple printed copies of your résumé.
• Review the list or floor plan of participating employers so you can prioritize which booths to visit first.

Walk the event floor and stop at employer tables that interest you:

• Introduce yourself and share a brief overview of your experience and career goals.
• Ask about current openings, required skills and certifications, pay ranges, benefits, training, and advancement opportunities.
• Hand over your résumé and collect business cards or recruiter contact information for follow-up.

Some employers may conduct quick screening interviews on the spot. If there’s a good fit, they may schedule a more in depth interview shortly after the fair. After the event, send thank you messages, connect on LinkedIn where appropriate, and complete any requested online applications.
