The Genesee County BEA is pleased to announce the return of the Graduating Senior Job Fair, which will be taking place at the Batavia GVBOCES Campus on Wednesday, February 11, 2026 (9 AM - 2 PM) (please see attached flyer).  This event is a great opportunity for ALL seniors to meet with local companies looking to hire immediately after graduation.  Even seniors planning on attending college after graduation should attend, as all students can gain confidence speaking with employers and learn how to navigate a job fair.

Here are the important details for districts planning to attend the event on February 11:

  • Event Date:     Wednesday, February 11, 2026
  • Event Location: Batavia CTE Campus - 8250 State Street Road, Batavia, NY 14020

    • Vendor companies will be arriving shortly before 9 AM.  Districts are encouraged to bring their non-CTE students anytime between 9 AM - 2 PM (NOTE: business vendors will have a lunch break between 11 AM - 12:30 PM).  With bus driver shortages common in many districts, the BEA encourages districts to transport non-CTE students to the Graduating Senior Job Fair when transporting your CTE students to BOCES (AM or PM session).  The non-CTE senior students will likely need only 1 hour at the job fair before returning to campus.  
  • NOTE: Any CTE students will likely attend the Graduating Senior Job Fair with their respective CTE program.  
  • What to Wear/Bring
    • Students should plan on dressing professionally to the job fair - clean & tidy hair, dress shirt/slacks, dress, etc.  
    • Students are encouraged to bring printed copies of their resume to the event.  There will be about 10-25 companies attending the event, so we recommend bringing several resume copies.
