“We are thrilled with the success of the job fair and the opportunities it provided for job seekers in the area,” said Gurpal Dhaliwal, President – WCC. “Our goal was to bring together top employers and job seekers and create meaningful connections, and we believe we achieved that goal.”

Job seekers who attended the job fair expressed gratitude for the opportunity to network with top employers in their fields. Many of them were able to speak with multiple employers and even received on-the-spot interviews.

“I came to the job fair hoping to find my dream job, and I was not disappointed,” said Ramandeep Kaur (job seeker). “I spoke with several companies and was even offered an interview. I am grateful for this opportunity.”

The success of the job fair is a testament to the importance of creating opportunities for job seekers to connect with top employers in their fields. Western Community College will continue hosting job fairs to provide valuable career opportunities for our students, alums & job seekers. View all event photos on Flickr @ https://buff.ly/3FRLJAi
