Collin College Farmersville Campus Hosts Inaugural Spring into Your Future Job Fair

Feb. 14, 2023 Collin College Farmersville Campus will host its inaugural Spring into Your Future Job Fair from 5-7 p.m. on March 1 at the Farmersville Campus atrium and library. Partnering with local employers, the event is designed to showcase local job opportunities for students and community members.

Were excited to bring an event like this to our campus, said Dr. Mary McRae, Farmersville Campus provost. Were committed in assisting not only our students, but our community members as well, with securing local living-wage job opportunities.

The event is free of cost, and both students and community members are encouraged to attend prepared with copies of rsums and listed references as hiring managers will be in attendance. Approximately 30 area employers will be available to provide information about their local business and potential job opportunities.

It can be intimidating securing internships and employment for anyone who is working toward the completion of their degree, said Dr. Dawn Gomez Farmersville Campus career center manager. We want to help students and community members find opportunities to utilize their degrees in their local communities, and this is a great way to do that.
