Top-Consultant.com selects iCongo Live to power virtual jobs fair
 
 Top-Consultant.com has
selected iCongo Live,
the leading developer of
online events, virtual
trade shows and job fair
systems, to power a
series of virtual
careers fairs to
complement the physical
Consultancy Careers Fair
staged in London each
October.
   The inaugural virtual
job fair will take place
on 20 June 2008, with 30
consulting organisations
already committed to
 
 exhibiting – including
the likes of Accenture
and IBM.
   iCongo Live's
platform provides
recruiters and job
boards with a suite of
tools to easily create
and manage
Internet-based online
events, virtual trade
shows and conferences.
The technology allows
Top-Consultant to break
down physical barriers
in finding prospective
candidates to meet
 
 consulting firms' hiring
needs.
   "A major factor in
the decision to launch a
virtual offering was the
desire to make it easier
for consultants seeking
new positions to attend
our fairs," said
Top-Consultant's
co-founding director
Tony Restell. "Logging
into a virtual fair for
an hour is much less
intrusive than having to
take a day off to attend
an event in person.
 
 Going virtual also
addresses one of the
biggest concerns that
candidates have about
attending a physical
fair – that they'll be
spotted at the fair by
their current employer."
   "We are very proud to
power the series of
virtual job fairs for
Top-Consultant.com,"
said Yves Daoust,
executive vice president
of iCongo Live. "iCongo
Live's virtual trade
show platform provides a
 
 compelling example of
doing business
differently by using the
power of a virtual
event. With our market
leading technology,
Top-Consultant provides
its attendees and
exhibitors with a first
of its kind virtual
event, enhancing a
current line of
successful physical
events."
