Job seekers are encouraged to dress “business casual” and bring copies of their current resume. They will have the opportunity to meet personally with employers to discuss their backgrounds and interests to help determine whether there’s a potential fit. To facilitate matching job seekers with employers, a color-coding system will be used to designate which fields each company is looking to staff.

Proceeds from business sponsorships and employment booth registrations will benefit the Community Job Club, Inc. Companies interested in becoming a sponsor or job seekers wanting to register for the event may email their requests to helpwanted@recordpub.com for more information.
