Job
seekers and employers spent an afternoon getting to know each other last
week during the Second Annual Community Job Fair hosted by Cerro Coso
Community College. Nearly 30 employers were in attendance and more
than 200 job seekers attended the fair throughout the afternoon. The job
fair was a culmination of a week-long career seminar and job search events
organized and hosted by the Owens Valley Career Development Center and
sponsored by Bishop Paiute Tribe, Bishop Sunrise Rotary, Serra Employment
Services, Paiute Palace Casino, Bishop Indian Education Center and the
Tribal Employment Rights Ordinance. The free event included workshops
such as, Job Application Writing, Dress for Success, Writing a Winning
Resume, and Resources for Success. Local community leaders volunteered
to present the workshops and participate in mock interviews and motivational
lectures.
