(KAIR)--A two day job fair is planned in Atchison.
The City of Atchison is hosting the event, which will be held both Friday and Saturday at the Atchison Event Center.
The job fair will run from 4 until 7:00 Friday and Saturday from 9:00 in the morning until 12 noon.
Joe Warren, City of Atchison Director of Administrative Services Finance, Community Development, Communications, told MSC News that while the City isn’t in the job fair business, they are in the community building business, with the job fair seen as one way to help with that effort. “With a couple of key employers in our community closing and many employers in our area looking for people, we just thought we would try to connect those who need jobs, or better jobs, with those who have some available.”
Twelve employers are signed-on to participate, and include Benedictine College, MGP Ingredients, Blish-Mize, Bottorff Construction, the City of Atchison, Aramark, Stresscrete, Atchison Tubular Services, and Holiday Inn Express.
Prospective employees are reminded to bring resumes and to dress appropriately.
The job fair is free.
