JOB FAIR COMING IN SEPTEMBER TO BLINN COLLEGE

  

Blinn College, Brenham/Washington County Economic Development, and the Washington County Chamber of Commerce are encouraging employers with part-time job vacancies to secure a booth for their upcoming free job fair.

The free job fair is being held Wednesday, September 7, from 11am-2pm in the Atrium of the Blinn College Student Center.

Job seekers should dress for an interview and bring a resume or materials necessary to complete job applications.

Part-time job seekers are welcome at anytime during the job fair with no advance registration required. The job fair is open to the public.

Director of Economic Development Susan Cates said, “As employment figures reach near pre-pandemic levels, employers are finding staff recruitment to be challenging. Many employers are tapping into the part-time workforce of students, retirees, and parents seeking flexible schedules as they fill positions across various industries.”

Blinn College, who is hosting the Job Fair, wants to let employers know that their students are a great source for the part-time workforce.

Brenham Campus Executive Dean Dr. John Turner stated that Blinn College offers housing options for resident students employed locally during the summer months. This allows continuity for staffing for local businesses as well as consistent employment for the student workforce.
