Blog Post: You've Spoken and We've Listened!

One of the great things about Jobing.com (ok, my opinion here) is how open we are to new ideas and change, when it makes the best sense for everyone.  We have always taken both emloyer and job seeker feedback seriously, and because of this, we have recently made a fantastic change to our Career Expo events.  They will now run from 2PM to 6PM, which will benefit everyone.  Employers won't lose an entire day out of the office but instead can maximize their effectiveness while away from the office and focus their time on recruiting.  Job seekers will have a chance to meet with engaged employers, and for those who might need to come after their current job, they will still get to meet with great employers to find an amazing new career.

Because this change is coming so close on the heels of our next Career Expo on July 17th at the Anaheim Convention Center, we are offering our regular services at an extended time to allow more job seekers to benefit from them!  We will have our first workshop begin at 12:15 PM and our Resume Review will open at 1PM, and both of these services are free to you!  So if you'd like to get there early and take advantage of these services, we are there to help.  Make sure to register in advance so you'll have your Quick Pass for rapid entry into the event!

Our complete list of workshops are as follows:
