The NBCC Foundation (NBCCF) is proud to host the fourth annual Counseling Foundations: Your Path to Career Success virtual career fair on April 25, 2024, from 11 am to 5 pm EDT. The event brings together counselors and employers from across the country.
As a career fair focused solely on counseling, it exclusively features opportunities relevant for counselors—both recent graduates from master’s and doctoral counseling programs and seasoned counseling professionals. This convenient online event allows job seekers and employers from across the country to connect and get straight to important conversations.
The career fair is particularly focused on connecting nonprofit organizations—especially those in underserved and never-served areas—with counselors dedicated to and trained for that specific environment, including current and alumni NBCC Minority Fellowship Program Fellows and Foundation Scholars. In this way, the event supports the Foundation’s mission of providing equitable and accessible mental health services to those in need and NBCC’s mission of advancing the profession of counseling.
This virtual career fair is free for job seekers. Register online as a job seeker to access on-demand professional development webinars to help you prepare. You can also share your résumé when you register, which allows employers to seek out attendees and schedule chats prior to the start of the event. The career fair also offers one-on-one text and video chats with participating employers.
For employers and sponsors, multiple packages are available at different price points, including a special price for nonprofits. Register online to promote your organization and find qualified candidates. The registration deadline for employers and sponsors is April 15. The sooner a sponsor registers, the longer they will receive the corresponding visibility and marketing.
“We are thrilled to be able to offer a convenient and cost-effective event that provides opportunities specifically for counselors,” says NBCC Director of Professional Resources Catherine Clifton. “We hear all the time that job searching is made much harder by the cost of time and travel involved, and the Counseling Foundations virtual career fair removes those obstacles for employers and job seekers alike.”
