A big job fair specifically targeted to young adults is scheduled for Saturday in West Palm Beach.

The event is being held from 9 a.m. to noon at the Mary McDonald Wilson Center at Gaines Park located at 1501 North Australian Ave. Doors open at 8:30 a.m.

The city said more than 100 young job seekers and about 50 business owners, corporate hiring managers and agencies will take part in the Young Adult Job and Resource Fair.

 

Now in its fifth year, the city says the event provides an opportunity for employers to meet some of West Palm Beach’s most motivated and responsible young adults seeking employment opportunities.

Resources will be available for internships, apprenticeships and future career paths.

Guest speakers will include Mayor Jeri Muoio with live entertainment from X102.3’s Reggie Dee.

Participants can register for the event at www.wpb.org or contact Kevin Jones at (561) 822-1413.
