Nearly 85 area companies will be onsite for McHenry County College’s (MCC) Job and Internship Fair on Wednesday, April 8. The event, hosted in partnership with the McHenry County Workforce Network, will be held from 11 a.m. – 1:30 p.m. in the Gym at the College, 8900 US Hwy. 14, Crystal Lake. Employers will be seeking interns, temporary workers, and part- and full-time employees.
“Whether you’re looking for your first job or want to take the next step in your career, this event offers a valuable opportunity to connect directly with local employers,” said Cory Vlahos, coordinator of career services at MCC. “Building those face-to-face connections can make a meaningful difference in today’s job search.”
Interested students, alumni, and community members can register and learn more here. The event is free and open to the public. While pre-registration is not required, it is encouraged to help streamline check-in. A list of participating employers and job opportunities can be found on the registration webpage.
Attendees can also download the Handshake mobile app to scan QR codes at employer booths during the fair to connect with recruiters, share resumes, apply for positions, and begin building their professional network.
Job seekers are encouraged to dress professionally and bring copies of their resume to give employers. Those who would like individual assistance developing or updating their resume prior to the fair can contact careers@mchenry.edu or (815) 455-8566 to request an appointment.
Employer registration is still open, but space is limited. Reserve a booth here or post a job anytime for free through MCC's Hire a Scot job board.
Students, alumni, and community members can search MCC’s Hire a Scot job board throughout the year or take advantage of career coaching, practice interviews, or individual appointments to discuss goals and job search strategies through the College’s Office of Career Services.
