Career fair software without the budget fight
Free registration for job seekers, employer tables booked and paid online, and a candidate list every recruiter takes home.
Career fairs run on thin budgets and goodwill. The organizer is usually a careers office, a chamber of commerce or a volunteer committee, the software budget is close to zero, and the whole thing only works if employers come back next year. That last part hangs on one question: did the recruiters meet candidates worth following up?
We built Expo Manager after 15 years of running events, and career fairs are where the free-for-organizers model matters most.
Free registration for job seekers
Set entry to free and candidates register in a minute. Everyone gets a QR ticket by email, you get an accurate headcount before doors open, and check-in on the day is a scan rather than a clipboard.
Employer tables, booked and paid online
Employers pick a table off the floorplan, add extras, and pay by card. Bookings stop being an email thread with an invoice attached, and you can see exactly what's sold while you're out recruiting the next employer.
Candidates captured, not collected on paper
With lead retrieval, a recruiter scans a candidate's badge and their details land in a list ready to export and act on. Recruiters go home with a working candidate pipeline instead of a pile of paper resumes, and that is exactly the story that gets them to rebook.
Prove the turnout
Attendance by the hour and table sales in one dashboard. Next year's employer pitch writes itself when you can show this year's numbers.
Genuinely affordable, because it's free
There is no license and no subscription, which matters when the software budget is zero. The platform is funded by a booking fee on paid checkouts, and at most career fairs that's the employer side. Job seekers register free, and the fair still costs you nothing to run.
