(Seguin) — Job opportunities will all be on the table today in nearby Schertz. The Seguin Economic Development Corporation (the Seguin EDC), the New Braunfels Economic Development Corporation (NBEDC), and the Schertz Economic Development Corporation (Schertz EDC) are again partnering to host the 3rd Regional Job Fair of 2022. The event will be held today from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. at the Schertz Civic Center.
This free event will feature approximately 40 employers ready to hire for immediate openings in a diverse range of job skills.
“It’s a great time for regional employers and employees to participate in the regional job fair in Schertz as a central location between Seguin and New Braunfels.” said Adrian Perez, executive director of the Schertz EDC. “We hope everyone drives a little to see a lot of the opportunity and talent our region has to offer.”
Job seekers can expect to find hundreds of openings in entry, intermediate and advanced-level positions in a variety of industries, including manufacturing, government, healthcare, education, retail, and more. Job seekers are encouraged to arrive to the job fair in business casual attire with multiple copies of an updated resume in hand. Many employers will be conducting on-site interviews and extending employment offers during job fair hours.
“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, executive director for the Seguin EDC.
Organizers say this collaborative effort between New Braunfels, Seguin, & Schertz gives job seekers and employers alike broader opportunities to connect and engage with interested and qualifying parties, all in one place. It is the intention of the EDCs to generate a successful, accessible pool of qualified talent within the region.
“We have a number of great employers in attendance this year with open positions ranging from tech to manufacturing. This a wonderful opportunity for job seekers in the region to find a great long-term career,” said Michele Boggs, vice president of economic development for the New Braunfels EDC.
The Schertz Civic Center is located at 1400 Schertz Pkwy, building 5.
