(Courtesy of Candibots.com) Now, in the aftermath of COVID, there are so many people looking for a new job.
The difficulty of emailing out resumes to a dead computer, website or software can be so spirit-breaking. The unknown can feel so huge to people, full of faceless “opportunities” that can be so scary and daunting. You could forget that at the other end of the resumes are just normal, nice bosses, average people looking to hire other average, nice people.
But when there is an event where average people can stop in, get a coffee, shake hands and meet real people that are a little bald, a little overweight, a little annoying and fast-talking, and a little this and a little that, it makes a ton of difference. The intimidation falls easily away and you find yourself at home among ordinary, good people like yourself: “A picture is worth a thousand words.” Meeting and chatting with someone who might be your boss or might be your employee takes a lot of the fears and unknowns out of the job search.
Think about it.
Joining the Jersey Job Fair makes meeting your boss or employee so much more “the next step” rather than the scary “first step.”
The Jersey Job Fair is a place of opportunity to mingle in an atmosphere that shouts, “Hope.”
Binyomin Sofer and Yosef Saslow from Candibots.com are two entrepreneurs who have joined the Business Roundtable, a digital network of large-scale business owners and private executives seeking to share resources and information. Together they will host an event to openly connect formerly out-of-reach employers with unlimited job candidates.
“An event like ours uniquely brings together real, available, ready-to-hire, live positions with job seekers, instantly taking a heavy percentage of the guesswork out of the process,” said Sofer. “A resume is just a sales document that presents a candidate with words but does not offer the opportunity for getting to know the person on a deeper level. At the Jersey Job Fair, instead of going through stacks of hard copy resumes to comb out possible winners, employers will be presenting at booths and engaging in face-to-face meetings with candidates. Who doesn’t know that a smile and a handshake is worth a thousand resumes?”
What’s unique about this job fair is that there will be well over 200 open job opportunities “on the floor” in a congenial yet professional atmosphere. Especially post-COVID, this mutually benefitting event is going to fill a need like never before, and you don’t want to miss it!
The Jersey Job Fair will take place on Tuesday, June 29, from 3 to 7 p.m. at Eagle Ridge Country Club, 2 Augusta Boulevard in Lakewood. Free admission for job seekers.
