Career fairs, trade conventions, and conferences are an excellent opportunity to raise awareness of careers in construction among a group of highly employable prospects. These events allow you to speak specifically about jobs and skills needed at your business. In addition to schools, contact other groups that provide similar opportunities including your local job service, your Chamber of Commerce, Future Farmers of America, SkillsUSA chapter, 4-H clubs, and more.
