Description:
Previously the Houston County Career Fair, the BCC Career Fair and Hiring Event was designed with employment in mind. Perfect for students to practice dressing to impress, approaching employers, handing out resumes, discussing employee benefits. Career planners are available to discuss resources available to youth and job seekers. Interviews can be on-site (real or mock).
Whether actually looking for a job, getting ready for employment, or currently working, this event is a great exposure of local jobs and types of careers available in the BCC. Excellent next step of networking as youth get ready to end their high school career.
