PENDLETON --- Soon-to-be graduates and those seeking employment are
invited to bring their resumes and meet with prospective employers
at Tri-County Technical College’s 12th Annual College and Career Fair.
Student Support Services, a TRiO program at Tri-County, will sponsor
the event March 2 from 9 a.m. – 2 p.m. in the Student Center/Cafeteria
area. College representatives will be on hand from 9 a.m. – noon, and
business and industry will be set up from 9 a.m. – 2 p.m.
The event is free and open to the public. Another job fair, geared
specifically to those employees who will be laid off from WestPoint
Stevens, will be held March 24 at the Madren Center and will be co-sponsored
by the Workforce Investment Act Board and Tri-County Technical College.
At the Annual College and Career Fair, students will have the opportunity
to network with representatives from area businesses, colleges and
universities. Cindy Trimmier-Lee, coordinator of Student Support Services,
advises attendees to come prepared with resumes in hand and questions
about the job market.
She added that college representatives will be accepting applications
and talking individually with those who are planning to transfer to
senior institutions.
“We urge everyone to take advantage of the unique opportunity of
having a number of resources in one place,” said Mrs. Trimmier-Lee.
“We are open to the community and offer hands-on information about
colleges and businesses,” she said.
