More than 80 booths will be manned by Government departments and companies including BELCO, the Bermuda Monetary Authority, Bacardi, HSBC Bank Bermuda, the Bermuda Hospitals Board and Capital G.
Prison guards and fire officers will also be able to answer your questions about what their jobs entail.
So whether you have your mind set on a career in the world of international business or in healthcare, the Careers Fair can provide you with informed and easy- to-understand guidance.
Rhona Emmerson, of the event’s management committee, said: “In view of the current Bermuda economic challenges, we have added a ‘Job Fair’ element for adults following the student visits.
“It is hoped that each exhibitor will participate by showcasing employment opportunities within their organizations on Thursday, between the hours of 4:30pm and 7:30pm with HR (human resources) personnel manning their booths.
Interaction
“The Careers Fair has been made possible over the past five years thanks to corporate and Government sponsorship as well as support from all participating exhibitors.
“This year we will continue to encourage a more thoughtful interaction between the exhibitors and the students.”
