To help employers showcase available opportunities and make it easy to connect job seekers with area employers, the West Kentucky Workforce Board has joined forces with partners including the City of Paducah to sponsor a job fair on Wednesday, August 4, at the Julian Carroll Convention Center, located at 415 Park Street in Paducah. The event will begin at 10 a.m. and end at 4 p.m.
Job seekers can explore full-time or part-time jobs from multiple industry sectors, from positions requiring no high school diploma or GED to positions requiring advanced college degrees. Job seekers can find their first job or post-retirement work. They can also connect with companies who offer Second Chance Employment – companies that accept applications and hire individuals with felony convictions or individuals recovering from substance abuse.
Joining the Workforce Board to sponsor the event are the City of Paducah, Four Rivers Society of Human Resource Managers, Greater Paducah Economic Development, Kentucky Career Center, Paducah Area Chamber of Commerce, The Paducah Sun, and WPSD Local 6.
Hosting a job fair allows everyone the opportunity to learn about the companies that are hiring, meet their human resources team, and ask questions. A roster of companies and their available positions will be made available at the event. In addition, WPSD Local 6 and The Paducah Sun are launching an online job board to link employers to potential employees.
Employers interested in registering for the event should contact the Customer Experience Department at Paducah City Hall at 270-444-8800 or click here.
