Edison State Community College
Edison To Host
Annual Career Expo
Edison State Community College will host its annual Career Expo on
Tuesday, March 15, from 11 a.m.–3 p.m. in the North Hall of the Piqua
campus.
More than 50 organizations ranging from business, construction,
financial services, health care, manufacturing, retail, social
services, and the armed forces are expected to be in attendance,
representing a wide range of job opportunities for west central Ohio
area residents.
The Career Expo is sponsored by Edison State Community College, the
Upper Valley Career Center, area job center networks, and Opportunities
for Ohioans with Disabilities. Miami and Shelby County representatives
will also be present to provide resume help and job search assistance.
“The Career Expo at Edison State is a great resource for those
interested in finding out which employers are hiring and the skill sets
they are seeking,” said Morgan Abney, Coordinator of Career Services.
“By speaking one-on-one with employers, job seekers have an excellent
opportunity to quickly build relationships and leave lasting
impressions.”
More than 300 job seekers are expected to attend the free event.
Representatives from organizations including Crown Equipment
Corporation, The Dannon Company, Emerson Climate Technologies, Inc.,
Ferguson Construction Company, Hartzell Industries, Hospice of Miami
County, Premier Health, Raymath Company, and many others will be
present. There will also be staffing services present, representing
some of the major employers in the area.
“Participating in a collective gathering with other job seekers and
multiple employers in the same area will allow attendees to discover
several things that they can use to increase their chances of landing
their dream job,” added Abney.
Edison State’s Career Services department provides resources to
students, alumni, and the community in the areas of career searching
and advising. Individuals are invited to the department for guidance as
they consider a career change or experience a job loss. Skilled career
advisors are available to guide them through a career assessment
process and introduce them to resources with significant data on career
fields and the job market.
