Students ready to transition to work -- don't miss this opportunity! Sign up for MaxAbility's Reverse Job Fair on Thursday, April 24, 10 AM - 11:30 AM at 125 Live in Rochester. What is a reverse job fair? Instead of job seekers approaching employers, job seekers are stationed at tables displaying information about themselves. Employers are encouraged to circulate and talk with candidates about their open positions.

You will be provided a table to set up your booth.
In your booth, you could choose to use a tri-fold poster board to share your work experiences in pictures. You may choose instead to bring a laptop to share a presentation with employers. You will need copies of your resume to share with employers.
To register, follow this link: https://bit.ly/2025JobSeekerRegistration
