Jobberman Backs Abuja Job and Career Fair 2026

In Short

Jobberman Nigeria joined Nigeria’s Federal Ministry of Labour and Employment, the Mastercard Foundation, and the GIZ SEDEC Cluster to convene the Abuja Job and Career Fair 2026.

The event included employer engagements, career counselling, CV reviews, and employability and skills development sessions. It also focused on underserved groups.

What Happened

The Abuja Job and Career Fair 2026 brought together job seekers and employers through employer engagements. It also offered career counselling, which is one on one guidance to help people plan their job search and career direction.

The fair included CV reviews, which are checks and edits to a candidate’s resume to make it clearer to employers. It also ran employability and skills development sessions, meaning training and workshops aimed at improving job readiness and practical skills.

Organisers said the event focused on underserved groups.

Why It Matters

Hiring events like this can help employers find candidates faster by creating a direct channel to screen talent in person. For job seekers, access to counselling and CV reviews can help remove basic barriers that keep strong candidates from getting interviews.

The focus on underserved groups also signals a push to widen access to employment support, especially for people who may have fewer networks or fewer chances to meet employers directly.
