ABOUT THE FAIR
The jobmesse austria is an annual career fair that has been organized in Vienna since its inception in 2022 by the renowned Barlag Advertising & Trade Fair Agency GmbH. The event takes place at the historic Marx Halle – a listed industrial building from the 19th century that now offers a distinctive atmosphere for events, thanks to its modern infrastructure.
Each autumn, the fair opens its doors to people of all ages who are looking to reorient their careers, develop professionally, or expand their network. Whether career starters, students, graduates, career changers, or experienced professionals and executives – jobmesse austria appeals to a broad audience aged 15 and over, positioning itself as far more than a traditional job market. More than 120 exhibitors from a wide range of sectors – including industry, trade, crafts, IT, media, tourism, healthcare, public services, insurance, and finance – provide insights and opportunities. Universities, educational institutions, chambers, and business networks are also represented, highlighting the depth and diversity of the event.
What sets jobmesse austria apart is its practical and personal value: At the free Application Check, visitors receive tailored feedback on their application documents from experienced career consultants. Professional application photos help create a strong first impression. In the JobTalks, industry experts share authentic insights into career paths, challenges, and success factors. In addition, workshops and presentations offer valuable input on topics such as job applications, career planning, and personal development.
jobmesse austria sees itself as a bridge between motivated talent and forward-thinking companies – not only on a regional level. As part of the cross-regional "jobmesse" series by the Barlag Group, which takes place in several cities across the German-speaking world, the event makes a significant contribution to Vienna’s economic vitality. It provides a platform for both international corporations and local businesses to engage directly with potential employees.
Located in Vienna’s third district, the Marx Halle impresses not only with its historic charm but also with its convenient accessibility. It is easy to reach by both public transport and car – making jobmesse austria a unique meeting point for career opportunities in the heart of one of Europe’s most vibrant cities.
The jobmesse austria takes place for the 5th time on 2 days from Sat., 26.09.2026 to Sun., 27.09.2026 in Vienna.
