GREENSBORO, NC – Triad Goodwill’s Fall Career Expo is Wednesday, October 12 from 10:00 a.m. – 2:00 p.m. at the Greensboro Coliseum Special Events Center, 1921 West Gate City Boulevard. With more than 50 employers expected, and approximately 1,000 job seekers from across the Triad, this Triad Goodwill event is an excellent opportunity for area companies to meet and recruit qualified candidates. Businesses must reserve a table by October 3. People who are unemployed or looking for a better work opportunity are encouraged to attend and may meet their next employer at this event! Guest admission and parking are free. Visit ILoveGoodwill.org/Fall-Career-Expo or call 336-544-5305 for more information.
Job seekers must register at the event, but you can save time by printing the Fast Pass registration form linked on the website and completing it in advance. Be sure to write the 10/12/16 event date at the bottom of the form and bring it with you. Upon arrival, you can get right in line to turn in your registration form and get a wrist band for entry.
To see which employers will be at the Fall Career Expo, visit ILoveGoodwill.org/Fall-Career-Expo. Do some research on companies and positions that interest you and apply online in advance. Then you’ll be ready for a face-to-face meeting and can reference your application. On October 12, it is a good idea to bring resumes to leave with employers who accept hard copies, and you should always dress professionally when meeting a potential employer. Please arrange for childcare in advance as children will not be allowed in the Career Fair.
You only have one chance to make a first impression and this could be your first interview. In fact, several employers have hired people on-the-spot at this event! Learn how to prepare for a career fair and about the three types of resumes you could create by clicking on the Job Seekers tab on ILoveGoodwill.org/Fall-Career-Expo. If you are un- or underemployed, you can receive FREE resume assistance and employment training on weekdays from the career experts at Triad Goodwill’s Charles & Betty Younce Career Center at North Elm 336-282-7307 or Greensboro Community Resource Center 336-544-5305.
