opportunity for participating businesses to present the qualities and skills
their business needs, tell job seekers why it's a good place to work, and inform them of current openings.

skills and backgrounds.
These informal panels consist of representatives from 4-5 local companies.
Businesses must schedule in advance. The panel is marketed to the local WorkSource partners and job seekers, and attracts
hundreds of motivated potential
applicants for each panel. Call for dates and times.
