Interview rooms

Quiet, private rooms where employers can turn a good booth conversation into a real interview.

Booking details for reviews and headshots will be shared when registration opens.

Before you register

Some workshops and introductions may require a separate reservation. Walk-ins will be welcome subject to venue capacity.

Expo admission does not include other festival events. No resume is required to attend, and attendance does not guarantee an interview or employment.

Your game plan

Make the most of your visit.

  1. 01

    Pick your top five

    Check the exhibitor directory before you come and choose the five organizations you most want to meet.

  2. 02

    Bring a 30-second intro

    Who you are, what you do, and what you are looking for. A resume or portfolio helps, but is never required to enter.

  3. 03

    Come early

    The floor is quieter in the morning, so conversations run longer. Book your resume review or headshot first.

  4. 04

    Follow up within 48 hours

    Ask each employer for the best next step, then follow up while the conversation is still fresh.

Your information, your choice

Career introductions with care.

C-Tribe coordinates employer introductions. A booth purchase does not grant access to resumes.

Career-introduction registration is not open yet. When it opens, resume sharing will be optional and require your approval for a named employer. There is no public resume directory.

What to expect

  • A private career profile reviewed by authorized C-Tribe staff.
  • A request identifying the employer and purpose before sharing.
  • Your choice to accept or decline an introduction.
  • Clear access, withdrawal, and retention information before you upload.

The target deadline for advance-introduction preparation is August 5, 2027. This is not an admission deadline and does not guarantee a match.

C-Tribe privacy policy

Before you come.

Do I need to be actively looking for a job?

No. You can attend to explore careers, meet people, discover training options, or visit the marketplace. All career stages are welcome.

Do I need to apply and be approved to attend?

General admission will use free registration, not an application or resume review. Capacity limits and any separately reserved programming will be explained when registration opens.

Can I attend without sharing a resume?

Yes. Resume submission and employer introductions are optional and separate from Expo admission.

Is the venue accessible?

The venue is not confirmed yet. Step-free access, facilities, transport, and accommodation information will be published before registration opens. Contact hello@ctribefestival.com with an access question.
