Wouldn’t it be nice to list skillset requirements for a position and magically, the right person arrives on your doorstep, ready to take on the role? While that may be a fantasy, the truth is that recruiters exist to make this happen, albeit in a more realistic way.

If you're hoping to leverage the next job fair to recruit a few top shelf employees, there are ways to get the word out to the masses as well as separate the wheat from the chaff. While you might think that employee recruitment at a job fair is going to be like shooting fish in a barrel, finding the kind of employees that are going to make your time spent at a job fair worthwhile can be improved through proper planning.
