The CityWide Hiring Fair will be held at City Colleges of Chicago locations over two consecutive Saturdays, October 21 and 28, 2023, from 10:00 am to 2:00 pm. See below for exact location and dates.

“I hear too many agencies use vacancies as reasoning for reduced quality in their services.” said Committee on Education and Child Development Chair Jeanette B. Taylor. “We are holding these job fairs with the community because it’s the best way to connect employer with potential employees. Our city normally sponsors hiring fairs at one location, by using all City Colleges, we open access to the event to all Chicagoans
