KANSASWORKS Hosts Job Fair Highlighting
Open Positions Across Kansas
TOPEKA – Lieutenant Governor and Secretary of Commerce David Toland is encouraging jobseekers and employers alike to take part in the upcoming Statewide Virtual Job Fair, hosted by KANSASWORKS, from 8:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. Wednesday, April 23.
“Kansas employers across the state have plentiful good-paying opportunities for jobseekers with any level of work experience,” Lieutenant Governor and Secretary of Commerce David Toland said. “The number of companies expanding in Kansas or relocating here brings new career options for all Kansans to take advantage of, including recent graduates of our outstanding higher education system.”
The Virtual Job Fair allows for anyone searching for a position to fill out applications, chat live and interview virtually with participating employers.
The job fair portal features helpful information such as a jobseeker training video, a list of participating employers, and channels for attendees to register and log in. Jobseekers are encouraged to dress professionally, as employers may request to engage in a video interview.
Candidates can participate through any digital device. Any individual with a disability may request accommodation by contacting their nearest workforce center at (877) 509-6757 prior to the event. Registration is required to participate in virtual job fairs, regardless of previous participation. To register, click here.
