More than 90 employers are expected to attend and seek employees for a wide range of positions across the area.

Looking for a new job? Then head to Schoolcraft College later this month.

The Livonia-based college will host its semi-annual job fair from 4 p.m. to 7 p.m. Oct. 12 inside the TrinityElite Sports Center at the college. There, attendees can meet with nearly 100 employers, each looking to add workers heading into the winter months.

“This job fair is a great opportunity for our recent graduates and others still looking for employment to meet a wide range of employers,” said Julie Hill, director of the college’s Career Services department. “Whatever your skillset is in, there’s an employer looking to hire in that department that’s participating in this job fair.”

Employers from several fields, including health care, education, accounting, business, supply chain, manufacturing and engineering and more will be speaking with candidates throughout the afternoon. Careers in electric vehicles will also be a featured career path at the event.

Other employers in attendance at the job fair include Trinity Health, FedEx, Welch Packaging, Amazon and many more.

Those attending should bring copies of their resume and dress appropriately for interviews with prospective employers.

For those needing some new interview clothing, Schoolcraft College’s Hinkle Student Resource Center has teamed up with JCPenney and its Suit-Up Event, which aims to help interviewees with 30% off select careerwear, shoes and accessories when shopping online. Those with a valid Schoolcraft College student ID looking to take advantage of the offer can receive a coupon by texting “schoolcraft” to 67292. To shop, visit jcpenney.com/m/suit-up-event.

“The job fair is open to the public – anyone can attend,” said Julie Hill, Director, Career Services. “We especially encourage students, their families and the community to attend – even if they aren’t looking for a job at this time – to learn more about the employers, what they have to offer, and to make that initial connection with what could be a future employer.

“It’s a wonderful opportunity to network – you can meet representatives from local businesses and get valuable one-on-one time with them.”

Hill recommends that attendees should treat the Fall Job Fair as an informal job interview, and prepare and dress in workplace attire. If you bring your resume, make sure it’s up to date. If you need help with your resume, Career Services offers free assistance to anyone – students and community members alike.
