Find a Job Friday Events Set at CareerSource Capital Region
Career Centers to Hold Mini Hiring Fairs Monthly
Tallahassee, Fla. — CareerSource Capital Region is launching "Find a Job Friday," an event for job seekers who have a profile on Employ Florida and a current resume. At these events, attendees can connect with employers at CareerSource Capital Region Career Centers on specific Fridays each month. The participating employers will have immediate job openings that they are looking to fill!
Benefits of Attending Find a Job Friday:
Direct Interaction: Attendees can meet recruiters and hiring managers face-to-face, make a personal impression, and receive immediate feedback, even potentially getting an on-the-spot interview.
Networking Opportunities: These events often gather professionals and job seekers from various industries, providing valuable networking opportunities that could lead to future career prospects.
Access to Multiple Employers and Companies: Connect with multiple actively hiring employers in one event. Learn about different company cultures and available positions directly from representatives to make informed decisions about where to apply.
Discover Hidden Opportunities: Not all job openings are publicly advertised; attending a Find a Job Friday event might uncover hidden job opportunities that are not listed online.
Overall, attending a Find a Job Friday can be a proactive step in a job search, offering numerous advantages that online applications may not provide.
“We encourage individuals who are looking for work to attend one or more Find a Job Friday events over the next year where many job vacancies are sure to be filled by capital area employers,” said Trish Yahn, Sr. Director at CareerSource Capital Region. She went on to say that “any employers with immediate job openings are encouraged to let us know that they would like to register for a booth at Find a Job Friday by emailing [email protected].”
