Volunteer ASL Interpreters Needed – Support Job Seekers at Canada Job Expo (April 8)
Make a Direct Impact. Help Connect Talent to Opportunity.
Canada Job Expo is seeking Volunteer ASL Interpreters for our upcoming event on April 8, 2026. This is an opportunity to play a critical role in helping Deaf and hard-of-hearing job seekers access real employment opportunities and engage directly with employers.
For over 17 years, Canada Job Expo has connected thousands of candidates with employers, government agencies, and organizations across multiple industries. Your support will ensure that accessibility is not a barrier to employment.
The Impact You Will Make:
Access to employment should be inclusive. Many qualified candidates face communication barriers that limit their ability to connect with employers.
By volunteering as an ASL interpreter, you will:
- Enable meaningful conversations between candidates and employers
- Support participation in workshops and hiring sessions
- Help individuals confidently present their skills and experience
- Contribute to a more inclusive and equitable workforce
