College Center hosts job fair
The Advocate
Those looking for a summer job may want to attend the MHCC Summer Jobs Fair on March 4.
The Summer Jobs Fair will be in the College Center from 10 a.m. to 1 p.m. and is coordinated by Program Assistant Christy Weigel.
“The purpose is to connect students with part-time and full-time seasonal jobs,” said Weigel.
Businesses that will be at the event are: AAA Oregon/Idaho; American Medical Response; Campus Point; Coca Cola Enterprises; FedEx Ground; The Home Depot; KGW; KOIN; Mt. Hood Aquatics Center; Portland Parks and Recreations Aquatics; Princess Tours; The Resort at the Mountain; Timberline Lodge; UPS; Upward Bound Camp; Child Care Resource and Referral of Multnomah County; and MHCC Student Outreach and Recruitment.
“For this event we usually have 15 to 20 businesses,” said Weigel.
“Two years ago we had about 300 attendees, and last year it was over 500.
I’m hoping it will be around that same range or higher,” said Weigel.
Weigel said that she has been trying to utilize free advertising for the event, mostly through social networking. She said there has been much interest generated for the event.
While the event is meant for students, it is open to anyone who wants to attend.
