Diversity Job Fair Arrives In Tampa On March 10

A Diversity/Professional Job Fair will be held in Tampa on Thursday, March 10. The event is sponsored by DiversityJobFairs.com and, according to Sr. Account Director Nicholas Pizzone, this job fair is unique.

"What sets our job fairs apart from others is that the employers attending the event are looking to attract a diverse candidate group," says Pizzone. "We put the right job seekers in front of the right employers."

DiversityJobFairs.com holds job fairs in cities around the country throughout the year. Pizzone says that Tampa is a location that his company often visits.

"It seems like there are always companies in Tampa that are hiring," he says. "We get a good turnout in the area, and the companies that participate are always impressed with the quality of candidates at the event."

Employers attending the March 10 job fair include AFLAC, Sears Home Improvement, Valpak and Coca-Cola.

Pizzone says he expects about 600 job seekers, and has some tips for success for those attendees.

"Go to our website and pre-register so you can see the full list of employers in attendance," Pizzone says. "On the day of the event, make sure you are professionally dressed, bring plenty of resumes and be ready to talk to employers about your experience and qualifications."

The Diversity/Professional Job Fair is free and open to the public. The event will be from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. at the Renaissance Tampa International Plaza Hotel, 4200 Jim Walter Blvd.
