SCOTTSBLUFF, Neb. - Western Nebraska Community College's third annual job and internship fair will be
held virtually on March 2.
The fair will be open to the public from 3-5:30 p.m., and will include a variety of
businesses from the Panhandle that are currently looking to fill open job and internship
listings, or will be in the near future. The virtual event is free to attend, but
participants must register first by visiting go.wncc.edu/jobfair.
"With the struggles of the past year still impacting our communities, we wanted to
bring back this opportunity to find a new job or career back to the Panhandle," said WNCC Career
Pathways Director Tonya Hergenrader. "Although this year's job fair will be held virtually,
it is still a great opportunity to meet and interact with local employers who are looking to fill vacant
positions."
Attendees can pre-register for 15-minute virtual meetings with employers during the
event, and will also have the opportunity to attend 30-minute information sessions
about the companies and job openings.
In addition to the fair, WNCC will host virtual "Work in Progress" sessions for residents
around the Panhandle. These virtual one-on-one sessions are designed to prepare job
seekers for interviews by fine tuning resumes and cover letters, interview skills,
and more. These sessions will be held on Feb. 19 or Feb. 23-26. To sign up for a time
slot or for more information, contact Tonya Hergenrader at tonya.herg@wncc.edu or
