CHARLESTON, W.Va. (WVDN) — WorkForce West Virginia today announced the next date in a series of Statewide Virtual Job Fairs. Both employers and job seekers are invited to participate in the virtual event on Wednesday, May 7, from 1:00 to 3:30 p.m.
“We invite West Virginia job seekers to empower your future with WorkForce West Virginia’s Statewide Virtual Job Fairs,” said Scott Adkins, Acting Commissioner of WorkForce West Virginia. “Since these job fairs started in October 2022, more than 14,000 West Virginia job seekers have attended virtually to connect with more than 3,300 employers and explore 17,999 posted open positions.”
Registration is required for both interested employers and job seekers. Register as a job seeker for the May 7 Statewide Virtual Job Fair.
When attending the event, job seekers are encouraged to dress professionally and have a calm, clutter-free background. The Virtual Statewide Job Fair portal features a Job Seeker Training video, a list of participating employers and channels for attendees to register and log in.
After registering for the first time, new employers will create a “Virtual Booth” to connect with job seekers. After completion, this booth will be available during subsequent job fairs. Register as an employer for the May 7 event.
