COMPETITION: Win free exhibition space at the biggest careers event in the west

ASK VIRTUALLY ANY business leader about their biggest battles, and no doubt the ability to find the skilled staff they need will rank high on the list.

Well, we’re here to help by offering the chance for one company to make their pitch to thousands of potential hires at the biggest careers event in Ireland’s west.

Career Zoo West, for which Fora is a media partner, is offering one of our newsletter subscribers free exhibition space – worth nearly €3,000 – at the event at Galway Racecourse on Saturday, 23 September.

You’ll get a 3m x 2m stand, complete with fittings, as well as a listing on the event’s website, app and a mention on social media.

It will also be an opportunity to be seen alongside more than 40 leading employers, including event sponsors Pramerica, Ericsson, Medtronic, FRS Recruitment and Cisco.

Many of these firms will be pitching Galway, and the broader west, as a better lifestyle choice for workers than the long commutes and nosebleed housing costs of Dublin.

How do you enter, we hear you ask? Here’s what you need:

• Subscribe to our newsletter here, if you haven’t already done so of course;
• Email competitions@fora.ie with your company details and tell us what jobs you have on offer, and why you’d benefit from exposure at Career Zoo West;
• To qualify for the prize, entrants must have at least two roles on offer in Ireland in tech, engineering, biotech, finance, sales, marketing, HR or other professional services;
• At least one staff member must be available to attend the event between 9am and 5pm.

Entries close at 5pm on Monday, 18 September. The prize doesn’t include on-stand graphics, which can be ordered through the event organiser if needed, or an optional CV collection tool.

Terms and conditions apply. Journal Media Limited’s decision in relation to selection of the winner is final and no correspondence will be entered into.
