Laredo College has long been a bridge between job-seekers and employers, and its upcoming Laredo CARES Winter Job Fair is yet another way the College continues to support the local workforce.
The job fair will take place on Thursday, Dec. 5, from 9 a.m. to noon at the Laredo College South Campus Billy Hall Jr. Student Center. This event is open to the public, and all job-seekers are encouraged to attend.
This is the fourth year the college has partnered with the City of Laredo Economic Development Department to host this event, which offers a unique opportunity for local job-seekers to connect with over 30 employers representing a variety of industries, including healthcare, logistics, education, government and business.
Attendees will have the chance to network directly with employers, gain valuable insights into in-demand job positions and explore career opportunities in some of the region’s most critical sectors.
“The Laredo CARES Job Fairs have proven to be highly successful hiring events for both our college and the broader community,” LC Workforce Development Center Director Denise Flores said. “We have seen between 300 and 500 participants at each job fair, and we are excited to continue this tradition with the upcoming Winter Job Fair. We hope that this event will further empower job-seekers and help connect them with the right opportunities for growth in their careers.”
Job-seekers attending the fair should come prepared with updated resumes, dressed in professional attire and ready to engage with potential employers. The event provides a platform to not only apply for available positions but to also make valuable connections and receive industry-specific guidance.
