To help teens put their best foot forward at the March 25 event, a job fair prep workshop will be offered at 6 p.m., Wednesday, March 22. The session will cover a wide range of topics for teen job seekers, from applications and interview techniques to work permits, employment law and professional etiquette.
“This year’s job fair is bigger and better than ever, with 16 businesses joining this year,” said Emily Ellinger, teen services librarian. “We’re excited to help teens, many of them looking for their first job, build confidence and navigate interviews in the supportive environment of the fair.”
