What people are saying about our Hiring Events
We love every WorkHawaiʻi event we come to. They’re always organized, the job seekers are great, and this event is going perfectly for us. We like to be invited all the time!
US Army Child & Youth ServicesAttended 4/1/25 Hiring Event
I'm a displaced federal worker, so this was a great opportunity
JobseekerAttended 3/15/25 Hiring Event
Everyone was very friendly, the layout was great, and I liked that there were so many entry level jobs!

The event was great - it was very informative and gave me a deeper understanding of how to fit myself into the workforce.

I was hired at Walgreens today and start on Monday!
JobseekerAttended 3/15/25 Hiring Event
The layout was great, categorizing them by industry and the spacing made it more comfortable and not so congested.
JobseekerAttended 3/15/25 Hiring Event
Amazing, there were specific employers I wanted to see and it was nice to be able to meet them and talk story.
JobseekerAttended 3/15/25 Hiring Event
I attended a Hiring Event and I was hired on the spot! I now have a great job that I love with good benefits. This is such a great event. It's really organized, you have help if you need it, you can get your résumé ready in a snap, and they're very service-oriented. I encourage everyone to come to these Hiring Events. If you want to change careers, you're a new hire, you're looking for your first job, it doesn't matter. They're here to help you.
Bonnie, JobseekerAttended 7/13/24 Hiring Event
I'm willing to work, I'm willing to learn, and I have many years of experience, so I think I have a lot of skills that people could use. I think the Hiring Event is great! It's better to have everybody under one roof - it's easier to job hunt. So thank you for having this event!
Healani, JobseekerAttended 7/13/24 Hiring Event
I'm happy to be here! Always happy to come to these events. I would say we get around two or three new hires easily at each event that we attend. We've gotten candidates from WorkHawai'i-American Job Center Hawai'i in the past, and I would say the best part is the support we get. The staff will follow up and ask, 'Hey, how's so-and-so doing?' after a month or two. It helps the candidate's success, as well.
Koa Restoration and Maintenance, EmployerAttended 7/13/24 Hiring Event
"I actually was involved with WorkHawaiʻi as a client, and I loved it because I had access to the tools I needed, such as the computer and the networking that it offered, and it was great… They help you do your résumés, they give you advice and direction on how to go through the process, how to apply for jobs, even some training, too. Because I have the experience and I went through the program, I can also let our applicants know, 'Go through WorkHawaiʻi, it’s a great benefit' and now I’m working for Hawaiʻi Public Housing Authority."
Hawaiʻi Public Housing Authority, EmployerAttended 4/16/24 Hiring Event
"The jobs I’m looking for are mostly blue-collar. I worked at a farm for an internship, so I’m very good at physical work. It’s very helpful that the employers are here. There’s a lot of jobs that I could be good at."
Kamoe, Job SeekerAttended 4/16/24 Hiring Event
"I’ve always really wanted to be a firefighter, it’s my dream job… my opportunity here is to see how many jobs there are for me. I’m very happy that the Honolulu Fire Department is here, and they gave me all the information I needed, and I’m really looking forward to it."
Dragon, Job SeekerAttended 4/16/24 Hiring Event
“The advantage of having a job fair is having all of the companies in one area, and the availability… I want someone who’s very nice, someone who has emotional intelligence and is willing to work with a mom. A kind flexible employer, but also someone who’s willing to help you grow in the company.”
Bumiko, Job SeekerAttended 2/29/24 Hiring Event
“I’ve been to approximately six Hiring Events. They typically go well and we have awesome results. Every job fair we have, some veteran ends up getting the dream job that they want. Not just a regular ‘throw them somewhere’ job, but actually the job that they want to do, so it’s very rewarding to see that.”
Charles, Disabled Veterans Outreach Program SpecialistAttended 2/29/24 Hiring Event
"It’s really convenient to have all these companies that are looking to hire. I think the biggest thing is getting to talk to people in person. Dropping your résumé into the void of LinkedIn or Indeed, I lose confidence in if people are even looking at it. Also with AI, sometimes companies are just scouring résumés, so with Hiring Events I have more confidence that I can make a good impression, and people can get to know me.”
Javon, Job SeekerAttended 2/29/24 Hiring Event
“It’s very different from sitting at home for hours on end applying for LinkedIn positions or Indeed positions, it was nice to actually put faces to Human Resource Officers. It was a very good and humane experience. It was a great day!”
Shelbei, Job SeekerAttended 11/4/23 Hiring Event
“My on the spot interview was kind of nerve wracking, but it was good in a way. I was actually more excited than nervous."
Lisa, Veteran, Job SeekerAttended 9/12/23 Hiring Event
“The workers are very nice and welcoming - everywhere you turn, there’s someone always trying to help find where you want to go.”
Shereen, Job SeekerAttended 9/12/23 Hiring Event
“We’ve been here since the first one. We’ve had candidates come through that interviewed with us and actually started with us. It’s all about just finding the right candidate. This event today has seemed the most promising so far.”
Gyotaku Restaurant, EmployerAttended 9/12/23 Hiring Event
"It's been great seeing a lot of the local companies come out and supporting us, giving us the opportunity to venture into our next career phase... I hope there are more events like this, and the word gets out to more veterans."
Denise, Veteran, Job SeekerAttended 7/25/23 Hiring Event
"This was the first job fair I ever attended. This was the best 20 minutes I ever invested in myself, landing me an awesome position in an awesome company."
Jennalyn, hired by Hawthorne CATAttended 1/10/23 Hiring Event
"The event was awesome. I heard back from the Cole Academy, and in two days they called me back for an interview. It went really well, and they're calling me back in tomorrow to observe me with the kids."
