Job Booths

Employers can rent job booths at Handmade Boston or Handmade Seattle for a fixed rate. The price is the same for all companies, regardless of size.

This setup creates a win-win-win scenario:

  • Handmade Cities earns meaningful revenue from booth rentals.
  • Employers gain access to a large in-person audience, which naturally acts as a strong resume filter.
  • Ticket holders have the opportunity to meet employers and potentially get hired.

Importantly, employers are not allowed to sponsor or influence the event itself. Job booth revenue is also intentionally kept much smaller than ticket sales to prevent any risk of a hostile takeover.

Demo Booths

At the time of writing demo booths are free of charge once your submission is approved. If this changes in the future we will install a program for the financially disadvantaged as we do for conference tickets.

Secretary's Note: The reason this may change is because venues started raising their fees significantly for renting trade show floors. We must adapt with the times.
