Job Fairs

The Colorado Department of Labor & Employment maintains a job fair calendar on their website that's updated monthly. Job fairs can be held for one or multiple employers, and some may be energy focused. In fact, Weld County is hosting an 'New Energy Economy & Manufacturing Job Fair' on November 20th, and staffing agency Aerotek, who often hires for energy jobs, will be holding one on November 26th.

For more information about Aerotek's and Weld County's energy job fair, among others, visit their online calendar at: http://www.coworkforce.com/wd/
