More than 200 job seekers and students attended the Seattle Boat Show Career Fair, connecting with 30 NMTA member businesses to explore career paths in the marine industry. Attendees learned about open positions, asked thoughtful questions, and took meaningful steps toward future employment. Core Plus students were especially engaged, and participating members shared how rewarding it was to see such strong interest from the next generation of marine professionals.
Feedback from participating businesses was overwhelmingly positive:
Seattle Boat Company:
“We have had great success finding candidates at previous Seattle Boat Show Career Fairs and this year came away with many qualified leads to follow up with.”
Aspen Power Catamarans:
“It was a great experience. We were especially impressed by the engagement and questions from the Core Plus students.”
Life Proof Boats:
“Over the last five years we have participated, we have found a candidate to hire each year. All of which have been long-term employees. We will continue to participate in this event because of the high success we have had.”
