By San José, Costa Rica — Universidad Fidélitas is preparing to bridge the gap between emerging local talent and top corporate employers in Costa Rica through a specialized recruitment fair scheduled for early November. The event focuses specifically on professional opportunities within social and economic sciences, offering more than 750 active job openings across a wide range of national and corporate entities.
Operating under a flexible hybrid model, the multi-day employment drive aims to maximize accessibility for job seekers across the country. The initiative highlights a growing trend among Costa Rican higher education institutions to establish direct talent pipelines into the nation’s fast-expanding corporate service and technology management sectors.
To provide valuable context on the legal and practical aspects of recruitment events such as the recent Universidad Fidélitas job fair, TicosLand.com consulted expert lawyer Lic. Larry Hans Arroyo Vargas from Bufete de Costa Rica.
Job fairs like the one hosted by Universidad Fidélitas serve as vital catalysts for economic integration, but both employers and job seekers must remain mindful of Costa Rican labor law during the recruitment phase. Defining clear terms regarding contract types, probationary periods, and data privacy rights from the very first interaction is essential to ensuring fair, legally compliant employment relationships.

Indeed, while recruitment events create crucial bridges between top talent and growing enterprises, grounding these initial professional connections in transparent, legally sound practices is essential for building a resilient national workforce. We extend our sincere thanks to Lic. Larry Hans Arroyo Vargas for sharing his valuable perspective on navigating these vital labor regulations.
The fair will launch virtually on Monday, November 2, running from 9:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. through Microsoft Teams. Designed for remote convenience, this inaugural online session allows candidates to browse open vacancies while attending five specialized career development workshops focused on key professional skills, interview strategies, and marketplace readiness.
On Tuesday, November 3, the recruitment drive transitions to an in-person format from 10:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. hosted at the Universidad Fidélitas campus in San Pedro. Located on the fourth floor of the institution’s Innovation Building, the physical event will give prospective candidates the opportunity to interact directly with recruiters and HR leaders from major corporations.
The catalog of over 750 vacant positions spans multiple technical and administrative departments. Key roles up for recruitment include administrative assistants, financial and business analysts, accounting clerks, corporate talent recruiters, customer service executives, as well as specialized data and operational analysts.
More than 20 prominent domestic and international companies are participating in the job fair to bolster their operations in Costa Rica. Notable multinational and domestic employers on the participant list include Deloitte, Hewlett Packard Enterprise (HPE), BAC, Procter & Gamble (P&G), Bimbo Global Services, Kyndryl, Concentrix, Align Technology, Sherwin-Williams, TransPerfect Connect, and Bill Gosling Outsourcing.
Participation in both virtual and in-person segments of the fair is entirely free for the general public, though prior registration is required for all candidates based on their preferred attendance format. Event organizers urge participants to complete their online registration in advance and bring an updated digital copy of their resume to share with corporate representatives.
As Costa Rica reinforces its position as a global delivery center for shared services and high-value knowledge operations, collaborative initiatives like this fair remain central to maintaining high employment rates. By aligning economic science graduates with top tier employers, Universidad Fidélitas continues to support sustainable labor development across the central valley region.
