JOB seekers will have the chance to learn about vacancies at some of Bendigo\u2019s largest companies at an upcoming employment fair.<\/p>\n
The Bendigo Jobs Expo is an opportunity for exhibitors to showcase the employment opportunities and connect with future workers.<\/p>\n
Goldfields LLEN will also be in attendance to demonstrate the organisation\u2019s jobs portal, which lists vacancies in the Greater Bendigo regions and further afield in Victoria.<\/p>\n
Last year the event welcomed 300 people through the doors, a turn out Rob Herbert CEO of Be.Bendigo said he\u2019s hopeful will repeat.<\/p>\n
\u201cI think the actual opportunity to walk away with an offer is very real as part of these events, and I think that\u2019s the most powerful thing of all at these expos,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n
According to Mr Herbert, attendees at the event will be able to speak with employers and make serious enquiries about securing a position.<\/p>\n
\u201cThese are legitimate jobs that are on offer,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n
The expo is being held in partnership with several stakeholders including Workforce Australia and Be.Bendigo and job seekers of any age or experience level are welcome.<\/p>\n
\u201cSometimes it\u2019s a little bit about trying to reach different audiences, how do you do that?\u201d Mr Herbert said.<\/p>\n
\u201cIt\u2019s that constant challenge of trying to get that message out there about these types of events so we can capture as broad an audience as possible,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n
Exhibits from up to 30 employers will feature at the one-day event, however final names and numbers are still being confirmed by organisers.<\/p>\n
Registrations will open soon to job seekers who are interested in seeing what work is available in the region.<\/p>\n
