  More of the company creating awareness on them wanting to hire people.
  
  Actual interview don't usually follow immediately after the seminar.

  Let people know what the company is about so as to "pre-screen" the people who are going to apply later.
  
  This is a sure way to get the attention of jobseekers. In US, companies often have recruitment seminars to get the best students from the best schools.

  At seminar, one person can speak to a lot of job seekers and clear their queries. At interview, the person is already asking you questions to see if you're qualified for the job.
