poly-E-fair is the virtual career fair of ETH Zurich founded in spring 2019. Its virtual nature makes it possible for all parties to meet and exchange information on job openings and career opportunities at low cost without geographic restrictions. poly-E-fair is interdisciplinary and is open to all students and graduates from ETH Zurich. It is a unique networking opportunity for companies and organizations who are looking to recruit talented and highly skilled professionals to make a positive difference to their operations.

poly-E-fair’s online platform offers companies the opportunity to contact ETH students ,researchers and graduates directly. Each participating company owns an individual booth. Various tools such as chat rooms, live streams and a search function for suitable candidates are available to optimize your experience and boost companies’ success at poly-E-
fair.

Participating companies can present themselves in virtual booths. The booths can present different information about the company like links to external websites, documents or a direct application tool. The freedom of the booth design the possibility to include videos, audio recordings and GIFs to the booth,  gives every exhibitor the chance to present themselves in a brand  new way in comparison to classic job fairs.

A career livestream is a live video-broadcast of 30 to 45 minutes, which takes place at your company’s premises. It features one or more of your employees giving authentic insights into daily work and life at your company. Your employees will have the chance to  answer audience questions live. Participants will have the chance to send questions and upvote those of others, allowing your employees to see and answer the most relevant questions.

No. Specific IT skills are not required for a successful participation in poly-E-fair. All you need to provide is a picture that serves as background of your booth, your company logo, and any kind of digital (marketing) materials that you would like to present to the participants, e.g. flyers, videos, presentations, web-links etc.
