Despite snow and ice, more than 100 determined job seekers and students attended the Seattle Boat Show Career Fair, eager to explore career opportunities with the participating member businesses. Attendees connected with employers, learned about job openings, and took the next steps toward careers in the marine industry.
Feedback from participating businesses was very positive:
“This was our first Seattle Boat Show Career Fair, and we were impressed. We have four candidates to follow up with and were especially impressed with the Core Plus Maritime students, who will be ready to hire in 6-12 months.”

“We have attended the Seattle Boat Show Career Fair for many years, and this year we met some highly qualified candidates. We will definitely be following up. After the Fair, two of them even visited our boat display to continue the conversation about opportunities with us.”
