Y Career Fair
11th Stay in Newfoundland and Labrador Career Fair!
Wednesday, March 21st, 2012
10:00am – 4:00pm
Holiday Inn, St. John's
The YMCA-YWCA of Northeast Avalon will be hosting our 11th Stay in Newfoundland and Labrador career fair on Wednesday, March 21st, 2012, from 10:00 am – 4:00 pm at the Holiday Inn in St. John’s. The theme for this fair is “Opportunity Awaits”. The theme represents all the career opportunities that are available to the attendees. We are continuing to target various exhibitors from all disciplines hiring in Newfoundland and Labrador within the next six months.
The Y Career Fair is open to the public and offers exhibitors access to a wide selection of candidates from all sectors. The advantage to exhibitors is being able to match faces to resumes and provide valuable exposure to their company. For job seekers, it is the opportunity to meet with the people who do the hiring in an organization. In addition, this multi-sector recruitment event is a great opportunity to make connections with qualified candidates and employers who have and are able to participate in a company’s diversity programs.
There is no fee attached to participate in the career fair, however we encourage companies and organizations to make a donation to our annual YMCA Strong Kids Campaign focused on raising much needed financial support for children, youth, and families who are unable to afford the full cost of participation in a Y program or activity.
This March we are expecting between 25-35 exhibitors and over 500 visitors to attend the event.
For job seekers, be sure to come prepared. Bring at least 10 - 20 copies of your resume for employers who request them and dress as though you are going to an interview. Take this opportunity to explore your options and connect with employers!
Y Employment and Enterprise Services aids people in becoming employment ready by offering employment counselling, assisting with job search initiatives and helping people start new businesses. Check out our website for more information about how we can help you.
A listing of exhibitors and types of positions available will be posted once this information becomes available.
