Queer Career Resource & Job Fair

The Queer Career Resource Fair provides a safe and accepting space for the community to network with professional individuals, organizations, and local businesses. The resource fair provides community members with access to professional recruiters to review their resumes, run through interview questions and answers, provide intel on job hunting and more. Having access to accepting and professional resources is incredibly important and something everyone has a right to. It also provides our community with access to our zero cost, gender affirming wardrobe with a size and style inclusive range of professional clothing.
