Commerce Encourages Jobseekers and Employers to Take Advantage of Upcoming Virtual Job Fair

Lieutenant Governor and Secretary of Commerce David Toland encourages jobseekers and employers searching for available talent to take part in this month’s Virtual Statewide Job Fair, hosted by KANSASWORKS, from 8:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. Wednesday, December 10.

“In Kansas, we pride ourselves on being the State of Unexpected — but one thing that you can most definitely expect to find is a good-paying job,” Lieutenant Governor and Secretary of Commerce David Toland said. “There is no reason to wait until the new year to start a new journey — a rewarding career is waiting for you right now, right here in Kansas.”

The Virtual Job Fair format allows anyone searching for a new job to fill out applications, chat live and interview virtually with participating employers.

This month’s Virtual Statewide Job Fair portal features helpful information such as a jobseeker training video, a list of participating employers and channels for attendees to register and log in. Jobseekers are encouraged to dress professionally, as they might be asked to engage in an interview.

Candidates can participate through any digital device. Any individual with a disability may request accommodations by contacting their nearest workforce center at (877) 509-6757 prior to the event. Registration is required to participate in virtual job fairs, regardless of previous participation. To register, click here.
