About Quantum Leap Career Fair
Quantum Leap Career Fair is an annual entry-level career fair that helps job seekers and employers connect and communicate face-to-face. The event provides a platform for participants to gather information on career options, build a network of contacts with peers and industry leaders, identify job openings or secure an interview, and stimulate insightful career discussions that can help them make quantum leaps in their career journey.
The 2017 edition hosted over 250 participants and was hailed as one of the forums that spurred the ongoing conversation around the future of work in Ghana. Building on the success of previous installments, this year's event, themed Proof of Skill, Al, and the Future of Work, will ignite a transformative spark in Ghana's employment landscape. It promises to be a groundbreaking convergence of ambition and innovation, where eager job seekers, visionary employers, and trailblazing thought leaders will collide.
