More than 40 employers will be at Medicine Hat College for its annual community job fair in a couple weeks.
The event will take place Feb. 26 from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. at Centennial Hall and give Hatters an opportunity to learn about and pursue a wide variety of careers.
“We’re looking forward to hosting another great event here at MHC, providing the space for industry professionals to recruit local talent and valuable networking to occur,” said Shelly Drefs, career services assistant with MHC’s career centre. “With a variety of different professions and industries represented amongst new and returning exhibitors, there will be something for everyone.”
In addition to information on job opportunities, there will also be information on post-secondary education opportunities.
The University of Lethbridge, for example, will have a trading and finance simulator for attendees to experiment with.
The Department of National Defense will be conducting on-the-spot interviews for various positions, including general help, such as kitchen staff, labour positions, skilled trades, summer jobs and more.
The Medicine Hat Mavericks, Moose Jaw Police Service, Canadian Pacific Railway, and Aquatic Invasive Species Program will be new exhibitors at the event this year.
The Moose Jaw Police Service will be hosting a Career Information Session on Feb. 25 at 4 p.m. in Room S144 at MHC in a separate event for anyone interested in learning about jobs within the criminal justice sector.
No registration is required for attendees.
There is still limited space available for exhibitors, who can register at https://www.mhc.ab.ca/Services/CareerCentre/JobFair.
