Review Available Jobs# P' ~' S% R9 O: {; I
Employers are looking for skilled workers in their advertised jobs. They have listed all available occupations. If you are looking for a job that is not listed feel free to go employer websites and submit a resume however please do not inquire at the show. Do not automatically apply for every job a company is advertising unless you are truly qualified. Employers will think you are not qualified for any job if you apply for everything.$ t% [7 U5 R' [. h+ n
You will be able to speak to employers and other exhibitors using the chat window. Some employers may have webcams, if you have one you can suggest a video meeting. We are expecting the show to be busy, be patient while waiting to speak with the employers of your choice.- p0 S- g g: n' V( J( A
