Cornwall Ontario – Job seekers will have a chance to meet dozens of local employers in-person at the Cornwall and Area Job Fair in March.

Cornwall and Area Job Fair 2025

The Job Fair will be held at the Cornwall Civic Complex on Wednesday March 26 and is being organized by the Social Development Council of Cornwall and Area’s Employability Network. The event is free and open to anyone seeking employment in Cornwall, Stormont, Dundas, Glengarry, and Akwesasne.

“There continues to be a persistent shortage of workers available to employers, especially in certain sectors,” says Carilyne Hébert, Executive Director of the SDC. “The Job Fair helps connect job seekers with companies that are hiring today – and in the weeks and months to come.”

This is the eleventh consecutive year that a Job Fair has been held in Cornwall. Last year, over 70 employers promoted over 500 jobs to a record audience of well over 1700 job seekers.
