Richmond tech employers, matched to your resume, interviewed from your couch.
Virtual
What this event is
JobFairX lists a technology-focused virtual job fair for Richmond on October 29, 2026, with a second on December 3. Registration is free; you build a resume, its matching system pairs you with employers, and interviews happen by video, phone or in person once an employer accepts.
Roles you will actually see
Who should go
Richmond-area job seekers who want extra employer exposure without travel and are comfortable with a mixed roster of staffing firms and direct employers.
Low cost, low ceiling. These matched virtual fairs surface a lot of staffing agencies and IT support roles, with a few real product companies mixed in, so screen hard on the first call. Your resume text drives the matching, so make it keyword-dense for the exact stack you want. Sponsorship is almost never stated in advance; ask early so you do not waste a week on a contract-to-hire that cannot sponsor.
Show up prepared
- 1Upload a keyword-rich resume a week ahead
- 2Prepare a two-minute screening pitch for short video slots
- 3Ask every employer about sponsorship and contract vs. direct hire
Sponsorship reality
Sponsorship varies by employer. No organizer publishes sponsorship. Check each employer you plan to meet against H-1B disclosure data before you go, and ask in the first two minutes so neither side wastes the conversation.
Showing up is half of it.
The other half is being first to the roles these employers post, and having something real to show when you get there.
See roles the minute they go live, tailor one resume per employer, and reach the hiring manager directly. Walk into the event as a follow-up, not a stranger.
