Job Fair 2017

Job seekers looking for a change are encouraged to attend the New Braunfels and Seguin Regional Job Fair to take place on Thursday, September 28, 2017 at the Central Texas Technology Center from 10:00 a.m. to 3:00 p.m. The event is hosted by the 10/35 Economic Development Alliance – a partnership between New Braunfels EDC and Seguin EDC to help local businesses find skilled employees. Approximately 40 employers will be present and looking to hire immediate openings in a diverse range of job skills.

“Many employers have contacted me trying to find ways to attract a talented workforce, which is part of our job to help connect these and help businesses grow and that in turn, helps to strengthen the economy and support a strong middle class,” said Rusty Brockman, Vice President of Economic Development for the New Braunfels Chamber of Commerce.

In addition to the job fair at the new expanded CTTC, Workforce Solutions Alamo will have their Workforce on Wheels (WOW) bus at the site that is equipped with computers and resources to assist job seekers with items such as creating/editing a resume, job matching, employment counseling, etc.

“We hope partnering together for a job fair will help job seekers to find employment closer to home which not only supports the economy, but reduces the impact of long distance commutes,” said Josh Schneuker, Interim Director of Economic Development for the City of Seguin.

To help assist those with transportation needs, Rockin ‘R’ River Rides will be providing buses to and from the Job Fair from selected sites in both New Braunfels and Seguin that will be announced soon. Davila’s BBQ Food Trucks will be on site for concessions.
