	Job fairs are one of the popular means used in communication between employers and potential employees in Poland. One of the groups, which the employer reaches through them are young adults entering the labour market, including students. The analysis of their behaviour constitutes the basis for preparation of the appropriate fair offer hence it is relevant to assess the attractiveness of job fairs and expectations towards them among this group of job seekers. The article presents the results of questionnaires conducted among 419 students of AGH University of Science and Technology in Kraków indicating their reasons for participating in (traditional and virtual) job fairs and the level of satisfaction with their participation. The results show a greater interest in traditional job fairs on the part of respondents. In addition, there is a diversity of expectations of job fairs among students of technical and managerial studies.
