A free job fair will bring 18 employers to Surprise Regional Library on Thursday, November 12, with openings spanning government, health care, education, manufacturing, finance and telecommunications.
The event runs from 10 a.m. to 1 p.m. at 16089 N. Bullard Ave. Registration is not required. The Surprise Public Library event page advises job seekers to bring printed copies of their resumes, while ARIZONA@WORK says employers will conduct onsite interviews and may make offers during the event.
Employers and advertised openings
An official employer list names 18 participating organizations. Public-sector employers include the City of Surprise, Arizona Department of Public Safety, Arizona Department of Veterans’ Services, FBI and U.S. Border Patrol. Dysart Unified School District is advertising bus-driver positions.
Private and nonprofit participants include AccentCare, All Ways Caring HomeCare, Arcadia Home Care & Staffing, Crescent Crown Distributing, Dress for Success, Jackson Hewitt Tax Services, MVM Inc., Recreation Centers of Sun City West, The Exchange, Touchstone Health Services, U.S. Merchants and Wyyerd Fiber.
The organizer’s list identifies openings ranging from caregivers and tax preparers to telecommunications representatives, merchandisers, machine operators, transportation specialists and landscape-maintenance workers. Posted pay examples include $22.08 an hour for Dysart bus drivers, $19 to $21 an hour for Wyyerd customer-service and technical-activation roles, and $18.25 an hour for Crescent Crown merchandisers. Job seekers should confirm current pay, qualifications and availability with each employer.
What job seekers should know
The fair is being organized by Maricopa County Human Services, the City of Surprise and ARIZONA@WORK. It is open to the public and free to attend.
Because interviews may take place onsite, attendees should arrive with several printed resumes and be prepared to discuss their work history, availability and relevant licenses or certifications. Reviewing the official employer list in advance can help applicants focus on the organizations and openings that fit their experience.
Questions from job seekers may be directed to event organizer Maritza Toyos at 602-372-9755 or through the contact information on the ARIZONA@WORK event page.
