Career Fair
Local employers from around the region are invited to participate in the second annual 海角社区 Career and Internship Fair, scheduled for Thursday, April 29, from 10 a.m. - 1 p.m. on campus.
Students from 海角社区CI, community colleges, and high schools, as well as members of the community, are invited to meet with employers who will discuss internships and current and anticipated job opportunities. Last year, approximately seventy firms were represented.
Participants will be able to gather occupational information and learn about part-time, summer, and full employment in a variety of career fields and academic majors. Some of this year's participants include the National Weather Service, the Industrial Tool Co., the Oxnard School District, Enterprise Rent-a-Car, Farmer's Insurance, and the FBI.
As a prelude to the fair, 海角社区CI is offering two free resume-writing workshops. 鈥淒eveloping Winning Resumes鈥� will be held Tuesday, April 13, from 2 - 3:30 p.m. on campus. This session will provide an overview on how to write a professional resume.
The second workshop, 鈥淩efine Your Resume,鈥� will be held Tuesday, April 20, from 2 - 3:30 p.m. on campus. This workshop is intended to be a follow-up to the first, although prior attendance is not required. Participants will receive helpful advice on ways to highlight their skills, education, and experience.
Christine Popok, CPA, 海角社区CI professor of business and English, will conduct both resume workshops.
Participating employers not only provide valuable information to attendees but also gain community visibility for their firm's products and services.
