The Backstory

Youth unemployment has been called an economic crisis. According to a recent report by the World Bank, “Ghana is faced with 12% youth unemployment and more than 50% underemployment, both higher than overall unemployment rates in Sub-Saharan African countries. Despite major investments by both government and private sector, this challenge will intensify if job opportunities remain limited.”

This year’s edition of Quantum Leap Career Fair celebrates the Africa Day 2021. We shall assemble the best minds to help our participants learn how find jobs in Ghana, skills employers need in today’s corporate Ghana, and what the future holds for Ghana’s workforce. We shall also invite thought-leading brands that are looking to recruit entry-level talents to help our participants access job opportunities on the spot.

Quantum Leap Career Fair is an annual entry-level career fair established to help job seekers and employers to connect and communicate face-to-face. The event provides a platform for participants to gather information on career options, build a network of contacts with peers and industry leaders, identify job openings or secure an interview.

Started in partnership with the British Council Ghana in 2015, the event has hosted over 1100 participants, including two special editions organized for President Obama’s Young African Leaders Initiative (YALI) West Africa participants in 2015 and 2016. This year’s edition promises to raise the dike in our event programming, you can’t afford to miss out!

The ticket price covers refreshments, certificate of participation, and training costs. Save your seat now! For more information, contact 0302802935 / WhatsApp 0545935695

Testimonials

I participated in SFAN Quantum Leap Career Fair 2019. At the event, they introduced us to the GNBCC New Business Challenge. When the application portal opened, I applied and was selected. And I was sponsored to the Netherlands in July as part of the program.
Kevin Wilson - Business Administration student, UPSA, Accra
The work that pioneering capacity builders, such as SFAN in Ghana, do, is essential to achieving all development outcomes in the country because, without ready and available skilled labor, companies and organizations cannot grow and deliver on their missions and goals.
Bridget Boakye - Writer and Entrepreneur
I'm very excited about the potential of SFAN to spur youth entrepreneurship, skills development, and capacity building of our future human capital. The passion and relentlessness of the team are infectious, and I'm looking forward to seeing the realization of their vision.
Timothy Kotin - Co-Founder, SuperFluid Labs
