City Workforce Program hosts job readiness seminar
A job readiness seminar, hosted by the Carson City Health and Human Services (CCHHS) Workforce Program, will be held over three days next week at 900 E. Long Street in Carson City.
"The event is free and open to anyone," said CCHHS Workforce Program Manager Ana Gregg.
The seminar, which runs Sept. 19-21 from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. each day, features skill-building presentations designed to improve employability with enhanced tools and techniques.
Seminar presenters include area employers and resource providers, such as JOIN (Job Opportunities In Nevada), Nevada State Bank, Carson City Library, Northern Nevada Dream Center, Western Nevada College, and Absolute Transformations, among others.
Anyone interested is asked to register and reserve a spot by calling 775-887-2110.
The Job Readiness Seminar precludes the year's second of two annual CCHHS-sponsored Job Fairs, held Sept. 23 from 2-4 p.m. at the Carson City Community Center, located at 851 E. William Street.
CCHHS said more than 40 employers are hiring. Dozens will be accepting applications and/or resumes, and even interviewing on the spot at the job fair.
The last job fair in February attracted a few hundred job seekers, Gregg said, including a few dozen military veterans.
She said this month's event is expected to draw as much attention.
"We would like to see more veterans," Gregg said.
Early admission for military veterans starts at 1:30 p.m.
Applicants are encouraged to come prepared and dressed for success, CCHHS said.
For more information on either the upcoming Job Readiness Seminar or Job Fair, contact Gregg at 775-283-7530 or email her at agregg@carson.org.
