Mariposa County’s third annual Career Day will be hosted by New Life Christian Fellowship at 5089 Cole Road on Feb. 5, 2010.

Career Day will have information for everyone, from high school students seeking their first job, those who are unemployed and looking for work, those who are scouting for a better position or those who are just curious about the local job market.

Numerous and varied local businesses, major corporations, vocational schools, colleges and job placement agencies will be there to provide general industry information, career guidance, and to accept applications for positions currently available.

From 9 a.m. to 2 p.m., Mariposa County High School junior and seniors will attend workshops and presentations, receive instruction on how to fill out a job application and to participate in mock and real job interviews. The general public is invited to meet and network with all presenters and representatives from 2 to 5 p.m. Participants are encouraged to bring several copies of their resume and dress for success.
