St. Louis Community College-Florissant Valley will be hosting a Spring Career and Networking Fair 10 a.m.-1 p.m. Tuesday, March 25, in the Student Center Multipurpose Room. The campus is located at 3400 Pershall Road in Ferguson.

Sponsored by Career and Employment Services (CES) at Florissant Valley, the fair gives jobseekers a chance to meet with a wide range of employers to discuss full-time, part-time, and internship positions.

“The Career and Networking Fair offers a wonderful opportunity for students, alumni and community members to meet with area employers and learn about jobs and internships,” said Michela Walsh, Florissant Valley’s manager of career and employment services. “Our last career fair had more than 250 job seekers who were able to connect with approximately 60 employers.”

More than 50 employers will be present to speak with job seekers and to establish an employment network.  Job search candidates can talk with employers in a number of industries including non-profit, hospitality, customer service and healthcare.

In addition to organizing career and job fairs, CES offers tips on conducting successful job searches and interviewing skills, assistance with writing resumes and cover letters, as well as an assortment of career preparation workshops.

“It’s like having a friend available 24/7 to answer questions and give me guidance on my career goals and ambitions,” said Sylisha Cobbs, Florissant Valley alumna. For more information, contact Walsh at 314-513-4543.
