TIPS FOR EMPLOYERS
As an employer, this is your opportunity to shine also! Engage job seekers who are eager to learn more about not only what you do, but the work culture of your organization. Attract potential employees with perks and incentives your current staff benefit from.
Be sure to bring your application forms, job descriptions, brochures, business cards and a file folder to hold the many resumes you will be receiving from job seekers.

“I thought it was fantastic, one of the best organized I have been to. How lovely to also have food and coffee. Coordinators were great and helpful and very responsive to questions. It is a hard event to plan and we appreciate that you put it on.”
“The Hiring Fair is our number one place for receiving resumes for summer positions. It is very important to us!”
“Just a quick note to say thank you. The Parksville Career Centre put on a great event, glad we could attend.”
“A wonderful opportunity for local businesses to meet prospective employees. Particularly to meet our increased hiring needs for seasonal roles in the spring. The fair was well attended and the Career Centre staff were amazing. One of the best run career fairs I have attended, which is many! Thank you so much.”
“As always, the Career Centre does a very organized and professional job of the Hiring Fair. Not only do we benefit from having the ability to meet new potential workers, it is always a great networking opportunity.”
“As a former “job-seeker” who used your services, I am always impressed with the willingness of your staff to help clients succeed. Today, as a representative of an employer, it was great to see the same willingness extended to help employers succeed in finding employees in a very competitive job market.”
