What Is the Career Expo?This isn't your average job fair. The First Nations Career Expo is a two-day, immersive experience packed with interactive workshops, face-to-face time with hiring managers, and real opportunities to launch or grow your career. Whether you're entering the workforce for the first time, exploring a career change, or looking to upgrade your skills, this event is built for you.

At Gitga'at Development Corporation, we believe that economic self-determination starts with access to opportunity. Events like the Career Expo are about more than job listings , they're about building relationships, strengthening our community, and ensuring that First Nations people have a seat at the table in industries shaping our region's future.
Lunch is provided both days. Bring your resume, your questions, and an open mind. We look forward to seeing you there.
