SC Works Trident to host Public Service Career Fair

A BERKELEY-CHARLESTON-DORCHESTER COUNCIL OF GOVERNMENTS PROGRAM

Hiring event for government jobs in the Tri-County region

SC Works Trident will host the second annual Public Service Career Fair on Tuesday, Sept. 10 at the Charleston Area Convention Center as part of its continued celebration of Workforce Development Month. This career fair provides government and public service agencies, from local cities, municipalities, and counties the opportunity to showcase their available positions within the Tri-County region.

The event will offer opportunities for the general public and high school seniors to explore potential career paths, during two separate sessions. Pre-registration is not required.

High school seniors from all four Tri-County region school districts will have the opportunity to connect with government employers to discuss job opportunities available upon graduation during an exclusive session from 9 a.m. to 11 a.m.

From 11 a.m. to 1 p.m., the event will be open to the public with government and local public service employers on site to recruit employees, provide information on benefits offered, and conduct interviews.

To maximize the benefits of the event, attendees should observe the following guidelines:

• Bring an updated resume to the hiring event.

• Be prepared for an on-site interview.

• Email updated resume to employers, if needed

“A career in public service is a noble calling that offers rewarding opportunities, right here in our region,” said BCDCOG Workforce Development Director Sharon Goss. “SC Works Trident is excited to host this unique hiring event for the second year to meet the needs of our community.”

SC Works Trident is available to provide resume assistance to job seekers ahead of the events. Those interested in this service can book an appointment with a career coach at scworkstrident.org/scheduler.
