When employers are asked about their number one concern, they often talk about finding skilled, work-ready talent and Michigan Works! has a solution available to help them do just that with an upcoming hiring event.
The next hiring event will take place in Van Buren County on November 1 from 11:00 am- 2:00 pm at the Van Buren ISD Conference Center, located at 490 S Paw Paw St in Lawrence.
“Our hiring events have been a major success for southwest Michigan employers and job seekers. We’re excited to bring them on the road for the month of November. These events will feature local employers from various sizes and industries,” said Mark O’Reilly, Director of Business Solutions at Michigan Works! Berrien, Cass, Van Buren.
Individuals who would like to participate should arrive interview ready with an updated resume. Individuals are encouraged to pre-register their attendance here. Masks are not required, however, they will be provided.
“We would also like to encourage individuals who would like to attend this hiring event, to stop in one of our Michigan Works! service centers in the days or weeks prior to the event to polish their resume, write a cover letter, and even sit through some mock interviews to brush up on their skills. Our team is ready to help you prepare for your next step,” O’Reilly added.
