“We’re excited to offer a robust lineup of employers at our fall career fair. This is a great opportunity for people in career transition to explore the wide variety of jobs hiring managers are looking to fill. With options to connect with employers via laptops, smart phones or tablets, the format is very convenient and simple to navigate through,” said Cheryl Harvey, Director of WCC’s Center for Career Success.
The virtual fair will be hosted on the Brazen platform made possible by the Michigan Department of Labor and Economic Opportunity’s Office of Employment and Training.
