THATCHER — Eastern Arizona College, in partnership with ARIZONA@WORK, will host the College and Career Job fair on Friday, Oct. 24, from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. at the Gherald L. Hoopes Jr. Activities Center.

The event is open to job seekers from across the region and will provide networking opportunities with local businesses. Employers from a variety of industries will be available to meet with prospective employees, answer questions, and accept résumés.

In addition to connecting with hiring managers, participants can take advantage of an on-site professional profile photo backdrop, ensuring they leave the event with a polished headshot for use on professional networking platforms, such as LinkedIn and Handshake.

Job seekers are encouraged to bring multiple copies of their résumés and dress professionally to make the most of this opportunity.

The College and Career Job fair is part of EAC’s ongoing effort to support students, alumni, and community members in reaching their career goals while helping local businesses recruit qualified talent, and is the second annual Fall hiring event hosted at EA by the Career Service Center.
