Kifowit Hosting Job Fair With Area Businesses

AURORA, Ill. – In an effort to help jobseekers find work, state Rep. Stephanie Kifowit, D-Oswego, is hosting a free Job Fair on Friday, July 31 from 10:30 a.m. to noon, with a session for exclusively for veterans running from 9:00 a.m. to 10:30 a.m., both at Belle Salle Banquets, located at 1920 E. New York St. in Aurora.

“While the economy has been improving recently, it is important we continue to help those who have lost their jobs find gainful employment,” Kifowit said. “Job Fairs are one way to help connect businesses with a pool of educated and talented workers. We have also set aside time for employers looking to hire our nation’s returned heroes, so I encourage veteran job seekers to come early.”

Kifowit is cohosting the Job Fair with the Valley Industrial Association and businesses scheduled to be represented at the event include Johnson Controls Power Solutions in Geneva, Wrigley Manufacturing in Yorkville, Smithfield Foods in St. Charles, APEX Material Handling in West Chicago, Aurora Bearing Company in Montgomery, Continental Envelope in Geneva, Oberweis Dairy in North Aurora, Alarm Detection in Aurora, Sterling Engineering in Westchester, FlexiCorps, St. Charles and Paramount Staffing in Aurora.

Residents will also be able to receive résumé preparation and interview coaching from experts from Aurora University and Waubonsee Community College. Those attending are encouraged to bring résumés for one-on-one assistance.
