There’s no requirement for advance booking – attendees are simply encouraged to drop in anytime between 2pm and 6pm if they are:
- Eager to embark on their career journey
- On the hunt for a better paying or more satisfying job
- In search of local employment opportunities, including information on training and apprenticeships.
One employer who previously participated at the Jobs Expo said: “It’s been a really valuable, successful event. It’s not only been highly successful from a point of view of promoting our vacancies but also connecting with local businesses and sharing information about our education programmes.
“We had 15 applications at the event and hundreds of conversations with job seekers. It is great to speak face to face with potential future employees to discuss the roles and our business.”
Job seekers who visit the expo will get the chance to:
- Engage with premier employers and network with leading local enterprises
- Speed up their job search by organising interviews on the day
- Receive advice on CV creation, interview techniques, local opportunities, benefits and more.
An exit survey of jobseekers at a previous Jobs Expo revealed that, of more than 700 attendees, the majority found it beneficial to attend, with 64 per cent stating they would definitely be applying for jobs and another 14 per cent considering doing so.
The Jobs Expo, organised by North Lincolnshire Council in collaboration with the Jobcentre and the Department for Work and Pensions, is the latest in a series of popular events, which have been highly effective in connecting local employers with hundreds of locals keen to take on new roles.
