Campus & Community

Three job fairs—two general and one specific to criminal justice—will bring 100 or more employers combined to Palm Beach State College campuses in October. Free and open to the public, the fairs will offer job seekers an array of full- and part-time openings to apply for, ranging from entry-level to managerial positions, as well as internships.

The Oct. 11 and 16 job fairs, organized by the Career Centers on the Palm Beach Gardens and Boca Raton campuses respectively, will feature employers spanning business, government and health care. The Oct. 19 fair on the Lake Worth campus will focus on criminal justice jobs and is sponsored by PBSC’s Criminal Justice Institute in partnership with the National Organization of Black Law Enforcement Executives (NOBLE) and the Palm Beach County Association of Chiefs of Police. Attendees are reminded to wear professional attire and bring copies of their résumé.
