Description
Join us for the Student Job Fair & Career Expo! This is a fantastic opportunity for businesses and organizations to recruit for full-time and part-time jobs, internships, and future career opportunities while educating the next generation about different industries and professions. All high schools in Kandiyohi County have been invited, bringing together a diverse group of students eager to explore career paths and engage with local employers. We expect 1,250 students to participate. Whether you’re looking to hire for immediate openings or build long-term relationships, this event is the perfect platform to connect with the workforce of tomorrow!
Special thanks to Southwest Initiative Foundation for sponsoring the offsite student transportation.
Looking for more ways to connect with the future workforce?
Explore Your Future is an in-person career exploration event for 10th graders on April 25th at Ridgewater College in Willmar. Schools will bring students to campus for a no-pressure, interactive event that allows students to visit activities that interest them at their own pace. You won’t find any presentations or lectures here! This event specializes in fun, hands-on activities that introduce students to careers and majors in areas like health care, manufacturing, agriculture, education, welding, business, and so much more!
