MEEDAC and Workforce Australia – Esperance Local Jobs are once again hosting a Community and Employment Expo for Esperance on Wednesday.
“The Expo is for absolutely anybody that is looking for a job, career change, sport, training opportunities,” spokesperson Natasha Colman said.
“It doesn’t matter if they are 16 of 65.
“Normally people are looking for something different — it’s usually a really good turnout.”
Ms Colman said last year’s event saw about 500 through the door, with great support from the community.
“This free event is perfect for anyone looking to take the next step in their career or explore new pathways,” she said.
“Attendees will receive guidance on securing sustainable employment, discover alternative career opportunities, and explore educational pathways leading to fulfilling jobs.
Ms Colman said the Expo would also provide access to traineeships and apprenticeships, as well as personalised support services to help individuals achieve their career goals.
“Don’t miss this opportunity to connect with resources and opportunities that can shape your future,” she said.
This community event is open to everyone, including:
- Students (TAFE and senior school)
