Let's Check Out "Canada's Best and Largest" Job Fair!

A sea of people at Shenzhen Convention Center, 150,000 converged here to find a job.

Okay, so it's not as humongous as the job fair in Shenzhen (above). But the National Job Fair & Training Expo we're visiting next Tuesday touts itself as Canada's biggest and best. Our next field trip aims to check out this claim on October 5, 2010, at Metro Toronto Convention Centre, North Building, Hall C.
 
Most of us will be leaving the Southbound Platform of Sheppard Yonge Subway Station at 9:30 a.m. If you're going there by yourself, please make sure you are at the registration area by 10:15 a.m. Tickets, worth $3.95 each, will be provided to those who are on time. Don't forget your resumes and nice shoes!

The event hopes "to present the 2010 Fall Fair with more than 150 stands to visit with exhibitors from Ontario, across Canada and abroad. Meet with over 600 recruiters, career specialists and admission officers. On site opportunities: Thousands of job, education, training and career services in a wide variety of sectors to advance your career." LINC levels 4 - 7 went last year and had a productive time.


Hopefully, we'll have an encore next week. Check out last year's job fair participants here.
