Career Fair

Career Fair Overview

Get ready for Dream Con’s Premiere Career Fair! The Career Fair will take place the entire weekend of July 26 - 28, 2024 at the Austin Convention Center.  At our Career Fair, you'll be able to learn about new opportunities and connect with some of your favorite companies. There will also be resources on how to take your career to the next level or start a new path altogether.

Because of the nature of our convention, our career fair is a come-as-you-are! Candidates will be in cosplay, shorts, or flip flops, etc. Digital Resumes will also be welcomed.
