Job Fair set for April 17
Mar 15, 2024Job seekers will have a chance to meet employers in person at the 2024 Rockingham Community Job Fair on Wednesday, April 17.
It will be held from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. on campus at the Keys Gymnasium, 558 County Home Road, Wentworth. As of now, 57 employers have signed up to be there with jobs in manufacturing, government, healthcare, transportation, and more.
Visitor parking will be available next to the gym. Check-in will be in the gym lobby, where attendees will also receive a booklet listing employers and their locations in the gym. Job seekers can save time by signing in online beforehand at https://www.cognitoforms.com/RCCAdmissions/_2024JobFairCheckin, then using the confirmation email to skip the check-in line.
Job seekers are encouraged to dress as though they are going for a job interview, bring enough resumes to give to all the employers they plan to meet, and be prepared to take notes and ask questions.
RCC takes pride in being a conduit for economic growth in the county by providing educational opportunities to prepare a workforce for jobs that meet business demands, and hosting the job fair is a way to complete the job seeker-employer connection.
The Job Fair is coordinated by RCC’s Career Development Services office, which offers one-on-one job readiness preparation such as resume writing, interview skills, and related job search guidance, in addition to classes and workshops providing opportunities for people to become more employable.
The event is sponsored by Lowes Foods, Pepsi, Canteen, NC Works, and Sheetz.
