Today was a meaningful day for our community!

The Highbush Neighbourhood Association, in collaboration with the Ontario Telugu Foundation, proudly hosted Job Fair 2026 at Dunbarton High School in Pickering.

✔ 200+ job seekers attended
✔ 13 employers participated across diverse industries
✔ Several candidates were shortlisted on the spot

The room was filled with focused conversations, networking, and real opportunity. For many, it was not just about submitting resumes. It was about building connections and taking a confident next step.

We were honoured to have MP Juanita Nathan join us and share her encouragement.

A special thank you to our keynote speaker, Dan Ruby, Associate Vice President at the Ontario Centre of Innovation, for delivering practical insights on innovation, workforce readiness, and the evolving job market in Ontario.

Thank you to every employer, volunteer, partner, and attendee who made this possible. Community collaboration is what drives real impact.
