20 of the best virtual career event platforms for engaging with students, grads

College Recruiter does not sell virtual career events, so this isn’t going to a “use our product” email.

Instead, this is going to be a “we’ve heard good things about these products from our Fortune 1,000 company, government agency, and other employers who hire at-scale customers” email. Virtual career event platforms come in many shapes and sizes and have existed for years, but they’ve become much more popular recently.

College Recruiter believes that every student and recent graduate deserves a great career. If we can help employers find virtual career event platforms that align with their needs, then that’s great. Some are best for multi-employer career fairs where you might have five or even 50 employers present. Candidates read about your roles, watch your video, and chat with you one-on-one. Others are more akin to information sessions or open houses, where there is only one employer. Some can be used either way.

Below are the platforms recommended by our employer customers, some of whom use our targeted email product to drive hundreds to thousands of highly-targeted, engaged candidates to their career events:

• 6Connex
• Brandlive
• Brazen
• CareerEco
• Crowdcast
• Easy Virtual Fair
• Eightfold.ai 
• Google Meet
• Gr8 People
• GradLeaders
• Handshake
• Jobcase
• Paradox 
• Premier Virtual
• Shaker Recruitment Marketing
• Symplicity
• TextRecruit
• vFairs
• XOR 
• Zoom

Now, a word of warning: a career event is like a tree falling in a forest: if no one attends, did it really exist? Would it make sense to explore how we can help ensure a good turnout to your virtual career event?
