Job seekers and employers are being invited to a massive job fair in March at Penticton Trade and Convention Centre.
The Start Here Okanagan Job Fair on March 12 is bringing together job seekers and a diverse range of the region’s employers seeking both entry-level and experienced employees.
The trade show-style event is being organized by the City of Penticton’s economic development department and is being billed as the “largest of its kind” throughout the region.
Employers are encouraged to register online as soon as possible on the website to lock in their booth. Entry will be free for job-seekers, and pre-registration is encouraged but not required.
“In today’s tight labour market, local businesses are telling us that recruitment is becoming an increasing challenge. Our forthcoming job fair is a practical solution that will connect employers with individuals seeking employment or new opportunities,” Penticton economic development specialist Andrew Kemp said.
WorkBC, Okanagan College, South Okanagan Immigrant and Community Services, Travel Penticton, Penticton Industrial Development Association and many more groups are supporting the event.
