Employers sought for Senior Sprint Career Fair

HUNTSVILLE — The Huntsville/Madison County Chamber is collaborating with Huntsville City Schools, Madison City Schools, Madison County Schools, community agencies, and local employers to provide career opportunities for graduating high school seniors who have not enrolled in a 2- or 4-year college or university, nor made firm post-graduation plans.

The Senior Sprint Career Fair is scheduled for April 29 from 8:30 a.m. to 1:30 p.m. at First Baptist Church of Huntsville. It is designed to create a bridge from high school to the workforce and provide graduates with several career and training opportunities.

For many students, the absence of knowledge prevents them from making firm future-based decisions. The fair seeks to raise awareness of careers for graduating seniors across all three school districts in Madison County and aim them toward a fruitful future.

Employers who are interested in attending this event must be willing to train and hire graduating seniors. This is an event that seeks to engage and interview students on the same day.

There will be time during the event for potential on-the-spot interviews. Employer registration ends April 21.
