The WANT Job and Career Expo annually brings together employers, job seekers, and college students from the region. The event will be held at the Ramada Greensburg Hotel & Conference Center. At the Job Fair, employers can recruit prospective employees for full-time, part-time, summer, internship, and co-op positions. It provides a venue to collect resumes, conduct screening interviews and distribute company information. The WANT Consortium, sponsor of the event, is a unique collaboration between the colleges and universities, local employers, PA CareerLink and the economic development entities in Westmoreland County.

There is no jobseeker registration fee. For detailed registration information, visit www.wantexpo.org. Registration is encouraged to provide you with valuable pre-event information.
All candidates should dress professionally and bring plenty of resumes to distribute to employers.
Your mission, should you choose to accept it, is to make an "all out" effort to meet with every employer that has the potential to hire you. In order to make that happen you will need to be prepared. Preparation is the key to making a successful presentation at any job or career fair.
Prior to the Event (PREPARE!)
To make the most of the event, we also recommend the following:
Day of the Event (PERFORM!)
After the Event (PERSIST!)
After the event, you should make it a point to follow up with a letter expressing your interest in the company and in what they have to offer. You may want to include an updated résumé, a link to an electronic portfolio, or provide better answers to specific questions asked during the event. Thank you/follow up letters should be received by the employer within 2-5 days after an event.
