Powered by Kym Jones Exhibitions (KJEX) since 2016, the Sydney Careers & Employment Expo has been the go-to event for anyone wanting to climb the career ladder or find their next big opportunity. The expo, hailed as NSW’s leading hub for education, training, and employment, connects thousands of students, job seekers, and career changers with industry experts, educators, and employers.
Its two action-packed days are dedicated to highlighting new and established industries, seminars, and interactive displays: the first is perfect for students hitting the books and planning their future, while the second is for adults and career switchers chasing their next big break. The expo’s mission to help everyone “work smarter, not harder” made it the one-stop career shop for guidance, clarity, and prospects. Here, students and professionals are more than welcome to turn their ambitions into actions.
