Southeast Ohio Regional Job Fair Scheduledo

Working to connect individuals searching for jobs and assisting companies looking to fill full and part time positions, OhioMeansJobs in the Southeast Ohio region is announcing an upcoming Job Fair on Wednesday, September 30, 2015 at the University of Rio Grande Lyne Center in Rio Grande, OH.

The OhioMeansJobs centers are now looking for companies that have jobs to fill or are looking to hire within the next twelve months. Interested employers should visit www.GrowGallia.com/jobfair to register online.

The Gallia County Commissioners encourage both individuals and companies to attend the event, “Job Fairs are a great opportunity for job seekers to meet with representatives from area employers, staffing agencies, military recruiters, government agencies and more. We hope that companies that are hiring will reach out and attend the job fair to meet the talented local individuals who are looking for work”.

Individuals looking for a new job, a better job, or even a new career will have the opportunity to meet with participating companies from across the region. For job seekers interested in updating their resumes or improving their interviewing skills, the local OhioMeansJobs centers will be conducting job fair preparatory classes prior to the job fair. The job fair event might even host people that can offer aid and online resources that can improve your job-hunting skills. For example, if you were to turn up wanting help with your resume, someone attending the event might offer information regarding what and how to include details within your resume, whereas others could point you in the direction of a website like www.arcresumes.com so you can have your resume written for you. Either way, the help you could receive could greatly improve your chances of being accepted for a job you’re applying for in the future.

“We are encouraging job seekers to pre-register for the event which will not only save time the day of the event, but individuals who pre-register will also receive notifications of job readiness workshops prior to the job fair, updated lists of companies attending the event, as well as notifications of future job fair and hiring events.” Said Dana Glassburn, Gallia County Department of Job and Family Services Director.

Additional information and registration forms for both employers and job seekers can be found by visiting www.GrowGallia.com/jobfair .
