We are committed to providing pathways for everyone in our community through our year-round community pillars of support.
What is the Hartford Athletic Hiring Expo?
Hartford Athletic is not only committed to world-class soccer entertainment; we are committed to providing pathways for everyone in our community through our year-round community pillars of support.
The Hartford Athletic Hiring Expo, in partnership with the Connecticut Department of Labor, is an annual tradition at Trinity Health Stadium in Hartford. The event is free to all job seekers – those who are unemployed, underemployed, or seeking new career opportunities.
