Frequently asked questions
What is Connect&?
Connect& is a curated hiring experience where top talent meets forward thinking employers face–to–face. Our events are invite only and designed to create meaningful connections that go beyond online applications.
How is this different from a job fair?
We’re not a cattle call job fair. You won’t wander aimlessly through crowded halls. Instead, our events are intimate, high–energy, and filled with only pre-vetted candidates and employers whose needs align.
Do I have to be actively job hunting to join?
No. Whether you’re actively seeking your next role, casually exploring, or simply looking to grow your professional network, you’re welcome to join our talent community. We love passive candidates!
How do I get invited to an event?
First, register and tell us about your skills, experience, and goals. If your background aligns with employer needs for an upcoming event, a Connect& Insider will reach out to begin our vetting process. Invitations are extended to vetted candidates who are the best fit for current opportunities.
Does joining guarantee an event invitation?
No. Joining puts you in our curated talent community, but event invitations are based on alignment with employer needs at that time.
What happens during the vetting process?
If your profile aligns with an opportunity, a Connect& Insider will connect with you to learn more about your career goals, strengths, and preferences to ensure the best fit.
How should I prepare if I’m invited?
We’ll provide you with tips, coaching, and resources to help you feel confident, make meaningful connections, and stand out during the event.
Is there a cost to join?
Join by December 31, 2025, and enjoy your first year of membership free. After that, membership is just $99 per year.
What kinds of roles do you feature?
We partner with employers across a variety of industries and career levels — from skilled trades and operations to professional, creative, and leadership roles.
Will my information be shared publicly?
No. Your information is only shared with employers when you are vetted and matched for a specific opportunity.
What if I’m not invited right away?
Stay in the community! New opportunities open up regularly, and your background may align with future events.
