Job Fair Set for Central Indiana
The Central Indiana Job Fair, a collaboration between Congressman André Carson and Ivy Tech Community College, is slated for 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. today at the Illinois Fall Creek Center, 2535 N. Capitol Ave., Indianapolis.
Registration is not required for job-seekers.
Organizers are expecting 75 employers with more than 1,000 openings to fill.
The job fair comes as unemployment in Marion County remains above 8 percent and the number of unemployed Indianapolis residents sits in the tens of thousands.
“Far too many Hoosiers are out of work and struggling to make ends meet,” said Congressman Carson. “Addressing this challenge must be a priority. We need to connect job-seekers with employers as quickly as possible, and my Central Indiana Job Fair does just that.”
In addition to connecting job-seekers with a variety of position types and employers, Congressman Carson’s Central Indiana Job Fair will include a Career Resource Center that assists participants with resumé writing and interview skills.
