TODAY’S the day to get along to the Daily Echo Jobsfair if you’re looking for a job or change of career.

Organisers are advising people to go down to the Premier Inn at Westover Road, Bournemouth, as early as they can.

It kicks off at 10.30am and runs until 6.30pm.

The event has proved a big success in the past for both companies and jobseekers alike.

It is a chance to find a new job, do some training and tap into some advice.

Best Training will be running workshops on how to write a CV and how to prepare for an interview, while a range of employers will be looking to fill job vacancies.

The Jobsfair is being sponsored once again by Bournemouth-based health insurer Health-on-Line and the event also takes place during Careers Week.

This annual campaign aims to promote careers guidance and boost opportunities across the UK, within school and colleges.

Angela Boyer, classified manager at the Daily Echo, said: “The Daily Echo Jobsfair is a great opportunity for local jobseekers to meet recruiters and make that all important first impression.

“A range of local employers, recruitment agencies and training providers are looking forward to welcoming everyone when the fair opens at 10.30am today.

“Not only is the fair great for those out of work, it’s also a chance for those considering changing career paths to talk this through in a positive environment with companies who currently have vacancies.

“The event attracts on average 1,500 visitors – I would therefore recommend that job hunters attend as early as possible on the day to ensure they have time to visit all the stands and perhaps attend some of the training workshops.”#
