iWorkinSport successfully hosted its new Virtual Job Fair Express on Thursday, 6 October 2022. The digital event allowed hundreds of participants to connect and have conversations and/or job interviews with recruiters of some of the most prestigious sports companies.
The Virtual Job Fair Express is shorter and more exclusive, intentionally bringing together fewer recruiters and participants, with the objective of creating the most beneficial environment for everyone attending.
The fair’s virtual environment enabled participants to book and attend live video interviews, meet recruiters and learn more about the attending sports organizations through live and on-demand webinars.
The event is truly international. It was attended by recruiters representing eight organizations from five countries and four continents. Students and alumni from sports management programs hailed from 47 different countries.
The recruiting organizations included the International Olympic Committee, FIBA - the International Basketball Association, United Soccer League, Saudi Arabian Football Federation, San Fernando Club Deportivo, Liga Portugal, 4ComM Career Management and SISU Venture Partners.
Students and alumni represented a variety of academic institutions from around the world including AISTS, Coventry University, Johan Cruyff Institute, ESBS, Escuela Universitaria Real Madrid, FIFA Master, FIMBA - University of Liverpool, Florida Atlantic University, Football Business Academy, University of Bath and others.
The iWorkinSport Job Fair is organized by the Swiss-based events company ENGAGE Sports & Entertainment SA.
