Virtual Moray jobs fair to offer wide range of opportunities

A RANGE of career opportunities in Moray are set to be up for grabs at the latest virtual jobs fair to be held in the region.

Run by the Department of Work and Pensions (DWP) the online event is due to take place on Thursday, October 1 between 11am and 11.45am and is open to those who are either looking to get back into employment or seeking a change of career.

DWP employer and partnership manager Jane Munro said: "A virtual jobs fair is a recruitment event that takes place on the internet.

"It's 45 minute intensive period of vacancy and opportunity information aimed at our customers. The main aim is to post a tweet every minute during the period, sometimes even two.

"For this event, we have a range of vacancies available within different sectors, we are also including information/advice on what type of roles are available, so there's lots of information available via this online event."

Those interested can join in the jobs fair by logging on to @JCPinNorthScot

Customers do not have to have a Twitter account to participate and local Jobcentres can help out for those who do not have internet access at home.

Lots of hints, tips and advice for jobseekers can be found at https://jobhelp.campaign.gov.uk/

In addition to links to vacancies, there is advice on the likes of job hunting strategies and much more.
