The Hawaii Career Expo takes place Wednesday in the Neal Blaisdell Exhibition Hall and features more than 100 booths where job seekers can speak directly with managers from the state’s largest employers.

Sponsored by The Honolulu Star-Advertiser and presented by Star Events, the free job fair allows these employers to connect with talented candidates seeking jobs in a variety of fields, organizers said. The free, in-person fair gives applicants the chance to learn about available positions and have one-on-one conversations with company recruiters while also distributing resumes.
