Exhibitor FAQs

Can I attend the Jobs Fair to discuss my company’s services with candidates/exhibitors if I haven’t booked a stand?

No. If you wish to speak with candidates and network with other exhibitors, you will need to book a stand. Any companies/attendees found to be promoting their organisation and services without first booking a stand, will be removed from the Jobs Fair.

When I arrive, do I just find a stand?

No, please wait to be seated. We have a floor plan with where your stand will be. Upon arriving at the room, please find one of our members of staff, and we will show you to your stand.

How much is it to book a stand?

Our stand prices start at £395+VAT. For full information enquire today on our pricing page.

How do I book a stand?

Simply send us an enquiry with this form confirming which stand you would like.

How do I pay for a stand?

We accept various payment methods for our stands. They include bank transfer/faster payment, PayPal, Cheque and Credit/Debit card online via Stripe.

For whatever reason, are we allowed to leave before the scheduled finishing time?

In the case of an emergency, this is fine. If not, we appreciate exhibitors staying until the end as job seekers will be attending right up until closing time. Exhibitors who leave early spoil the event for us, other exhibitors, and candidates looking for work. Please stay for the full duration as candidates will be disappointed if they turn up and you have already left.

What is included?

You can view what is included on our book a stand page.

Who do I speak with at The Job Fairs regarding booking a stand?
