What!

Since 1991, Spanish Marketing has provided professional marketing and recruiting services for companies and organizations interested in reaching the fast-growing minority markets, both Hispanic and non-Hispanic. At least six times a year, at rotating locations throughout central and eastern Massachusetts and the Metro West Region, Spanish Marketing holds Diversity Career Fairs.

Why? Bigger and better every year!

The Benefits to Employers:

Face-to-face interviews -- the most effective and efficient recruiting method.

Compress the hiring process -- interview many candidates in a short period of time.

Our proven multi-media advertising campaigns bring a large number of well-qualified diverse professionals and others seeking jobs at all levels.

Find lots of qualified minority candidates in one place.

You save time and $$$ because of the increased hire ratio over conventional methods.

A free Career Fair Program Book lists all participating companies with contact names and numbers and the types of jobs available. It continues working for you long after the day of the fair.

You will have password-protected access via our Web site to the Diversity Career Fair Resume Bank, a collection of all the resumes from the most recent Diversity Career Fairs -- a great way to search for potential employees you may miss at the fair.

Advertising and Promotion:

Since the success of a Diversity Career Fair hinges on getting the right mix of job seekers, we pay careful attention to the recruitment needs of participating companies. We target appropriate applicant pools with specialized advertising and promotion. Our marketing expertise enables us to reach all the minority communities.

Newspapers: Four weeks prior to the Diversity Career Fair, ads are placed in the classified and business sections of major newspapers serving the area of the job fair. We place ads in every key ethnic paper that serves the area.

Direct Mail: Promotional material will be sent to professional minority prospects who attended recent Job Fairs in the target areas and to our exclusive mailing list of over 5000 minority households with income greater than $50,000. A special mailing will be sent to selected candidates to come to the Marlboro high tech fair.

Radio: Thirty days before the Fair, we start the radio campaign. Ten days prior to the fair, we place 60 second radio commercials during drive time and on weekends. Ads on both AM and FM stations serving the Job Fair area will target the 25 to 54 year old professional and stress the importance of attending the event.

Television: Two weeks before the fair, we will have ads on the local news. We will also promote the Diversity Career Fairs on Spanish Television reaching the whole state.

Flyers and posters: Over 5,000 flyers will be distributed through area Career Centers, and throughout targeted areas with special emphasis on community organizations, colleges, churches, clinics, and food stores.

Networking: With more than ten years of involvement with the minority community, local and statewide, we know the key community leaders and organizations and will work with them to get the word out through the all important "word of mouth network."

Internet: Your company's name will be included in the list of Diversity Career Fair employers on our Web site. One month prior to the event we will have banners and sites listing participating companies on key employment Web sites.
