Orland Township will host a summer job fair on Tuesday, June 23 from 10 a.m. to noon, in the Orland Township parking, 14807 S. Ravinia Avenue, Orland Park, according to the office of Township Supervisor Paul O’Grady.

More than 20 companies will be attending, representing a variety of industries, including health care, financial, home improvement, government, transportation, retail and trades. Those attending will be able to network with local companies and talk to their representatives about current job openings.

“Due to the pandemic, many residents are facing new challenges, including unemployment,” said Supervisor O’Grady. “We are proud to be able to provide this opportunity for residents to meet with companies that are hiring, and help our community members take another step out of this difficult situation.”

The Township will have a large tent set up in the parking lot for the job fair. All attending, company representatives and job seekers, are to following current CDC social distancing guidelines, maintaining a minimum six-foot distance from others and wearing a face mask.

The job fair is free and no registration is required. Those seeking employment are asked to bring several copies of their resume to distribute to potential employers and to dress in business casual attire.
