Advertiser Staff
More than 150 employers will be accepting applications and answering questions at the Job Quest job fair set for 10 a.m.-3 p.m. Jan. 16 at the Neal Blaisdell Center.Recruiters will represent local businesses, Mainland organizations, military branches and government agencies at the state's oldest and largest job fair. The event will give job seekers a chance to make initial contact, apply for positions and set up an interview.
With the state's low unemployment rate, many employers are having a tough time finding and retaining workers. The job fair gives job seekers and employers an opportunity to meet in one venue. Representatives from O'ahu WorkLinks will be on hand to provide job-search assistance information.
Job seekers are advised to bring copies of their resumes, dress professionally, and research companies they may be interested in. More than 3,500 people attended the Job Quest job fair last September.
The event is sponsored by O'ahu WorkLinks, ALTRES Staffing, and Success Advertising.
Admission is $3; $1 for students, military and seniors with ID. For information, see www.successhi.com.
