Open Door Group, Sunshine Coast Tourism and Sechelt Innovations Limited, are hosting a career and job fair next Saturday, March 29, at the Seaside Centre in Sechelt.
The event is open to all Sunshine Coast businesses and features a number of educational institutions and career pursuits. Attendance is free to the public. Employers will be speaking to candidates from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. about immediate and future positions.
Open Door Group runs the WorkBC centres in both Gibsons and Sechelt, which provide free employment services to unemployed residents on the Sunshine Coast. "We are excited to sponsor this event, as this is an excellent opportunity for job seekers on the Sunshine Coast to network with local employers" said Peri Clark from Open Door Group. Any local job seekers requiring assistance to prepare for the event can drop in to either one of the local centres to access workshops or one-to-one coaching on resume writing, interview preparation, networking skills and much more.
