The job fair will be from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m., Friday, July 23, at Western Technical College’s El Paso Campus at 9624 Plaza Circle.
Featuring more than 100 employers, El Pasoans can apply for a variety of jobs, including managerial and senior level positions.
The event is family friendly, with activities ranging from face painting, a balloon artist and a dunking tank. Child care services will be available for parents attending the job fair.
“As many people are aware, the pandemic has drastically impacted the hiring process for many companies across the city,” District 5 city Rep. Isabel Salcido said in a news release. “Many El Paso employers have experienced difficulty returning back to their standard operational levels, but we hope this job fair will help our local companies get one step closer to staffing levels that were once commonplace.”
