“We invite you to unlock your potential at WorkForce West Virginia’s Statewide Virtual Job Fairs,” said Scott Adkins, Acting Commissioner of WorkForce West Virginia. “Employers and job seekers are encouraged to seize this opportunity to connect and grow together. Since these Statewide Virtual Job Fairs began three years ago, the Virtual Job Fair has had 41,989 registered job seekers, 5,754 registered employers and 17,999 available job openings.
