The Office of the Speaker is actively recruiting for legislative coordinators, policy analysts, communications specialists, attorneys, IT professionals, and more.

“After the success of last year’s event, I am looking forward to another job fair that allows us to attract the best and brightest Illinois has to offer,” said Speaker Welch. “I’m proud to be a leading voice for equity and diversity in the workplace, and I’m grateful I get to lead by example as the Speaker of the House.”

Nearly 100 applicants attended the in-person event in 2021 and more than 500 resumes were collected for open positions. Applicants ranged in age from college students to retirees looking to reenter the workforce. In addition to the in-person event, 100 people registered for the virtual option that was also offered due to COVID-19 concerns.
