Virtual Job Fairs by CyberForce Inviting Booth Hosts and Job Seekers

The Department of Energy’s CyberForce Program invites industry and academia to two upcoming virtual job fairs, one in May and one in September. Reach out if you can host a virtual booth.

The CyberForce Program is a workforce development program that seeks to inspire and develop the next generation of cyber defenders through hands-on competitions, webinars, learning resources, and career fairs. It strives to raise awareness of the nexus between critical infrastructure and cybersecurity through competitions that: 

  • Make critical thinking and soft skills key components,

  • Focus on both OT and IT cyber skills,

  • Value both individual and team-balanced work,

  • Emulate real-world energy scenarios, and

  • Build self-confidence.

To put the numbers into perspective, in 2023, the CyberForce Program supported over 1,600 participants throughout the calendar year from over 43 states, the District of Columbia, and Puerto Rico. No matter where you are located, the CyberForce Program can help connect you with bright talent and learning opportunities. We have two upcoming virtual career fairs which can offer your company an opportunity to interact with hundreds of candidates for full-time, part-time, internship, apprenticeship, etc. positions that you have open and looking to get filled. 

Professional Virtual Career Fair – Wednesday, May 15 from 11 AM-2 pm PACIFIC TIME 

Collegiate Virtual Career Fair – Thursday, September 12 from 11 AM-2pm PACIFIC TIME 

To host a virtual booth or to attend as a jobseeker, reach out directly to Amanda Theel at atheel@anl.gov.
