On the 17th of September, our latest Inclusive Employer Jobs Fair took place at the Methodist Church Dorset Gardens, organised in partnership with the Brighton Chamber of Commerce and the Department of Work and Pensions (DWP).
We were delighted to welcome over a hundred people through the doors to meet organisations, training providers and businesses from across the city. Our TDC Employability Support Workers provided advice and support in English, Arabic and Ukrainian.
Job seekers could attend a clinic with individual expert advice to improve CVs. Anita Pain from the DWP ran an interview workshop for attendees to practice and improve their skills. Attendees and exhibitors gave lots of positive feedback - another successful job fair.
I find the interview session very informative and useful for job seekers. I used the information I learned there during my actual job interviews. At the same time, it was interesting to exchange our experiences and thoughts with other workshop participants.

Look out for our next job fair in partnership with Brighton Chamber of Commerce and the Department of Work and Pensions supporting Brighton and Hove residents to move into employment and further their skills to improve employability.
Thank you to our funder Brighton and Hove City Council for supporting this work.
