Quad-Cities Hiring Fair For 10th-12th Graders Coming Up Thursday
The Quad Cities Chamber and IowaWORKS have partnered with local school districts to hold a QCA Hiring Fair for 10th to 12th grade students. The event will be held from 2 to 6 p.m. on Thursday, June 3 at the RiverCenter, 136 E. 3rd St., Davenport, IA. Masks are recommended.
Whether students are looking for a summer job or a future career, the QCA Hiring Fair offers an excellent resource for them to begin their search. Representatives from more than thirty companies will offer opportunities in a variety of career areas. Students can find full-time, part-time, and seasonal jobs to fit their skill sets. Employers will be offering interviews and job offers on-site.
“The Chamber is excited to partner with IowaWORKS and local school districts to coordinate and host a hiring fair,” said Michael Oberhaus, Vice President of Finance and Administration for the Quad Cities Chamber. “The hiring fair is a wonderful opportunity for job seekers, particularly high school students, to seek employment. It is also beneficial to area employers in need of workers. Some employers will be prepared to offer jobs on the spot. Employers will include manufacturers, logistics, health care, retail, local governments and restaurants.”
Students are advised to be prepared to be interviewed. They should dress professionally and bring multiple copies of their resumes. Davenport Schools students who attend will be excused from their buildings during the event.
