MITA members are invited to be a part of the 3rd Annual MITA Hiring Fair. This will be a live, face-to-face event. We are very excited to offer this much anticipated event. This is your chance to be a part of an exciting day of meeting, and hopefully, hiring talent to help complete the jobs scheduled for your 2022 construction season.
Three events will be held in various locations throughout the state offering all of our members an opportunity to be a part of one or more of the hiring fairs. Locations and dates include:
Wednesday, March 23, Mt Pleasant at the Soaring Eagle Resort
Friday, March 25, Grand Rapids at the Tassell MTEC, Grand Rapids Community College
Monday, March 28, Detroit at Huntington Place (formerly Cobo Hall)
The hiring fairs will be open for registrants from 9 a.m.-noon. Participating MITA members can begin set up at 7:30 a.m. The cost to participate will be $500 for a single event location, or $1,000 for two or three locations.
A statewide advertising campaign is currently underway to register interested workers. Employers will have tables for displays, handouts and an area to talk one-on-one with interested prospects. Participants looking for employment will be required to provide contact information and resumes upon signing up for the fairs. MITA will provide all members participating in the hiring fairs with the contact and resume information from all three of the events. Even if you have a strong human resources department, this is a way to expand your hiring reach. MITA will handle all planning, layout, and will be on-site signing in attendees at each fair. All you need to do is register, pay for the event and show up with your display and information. We will handle the rest of the details!
MITA is looking forward to bringing you this opportunity to help shore up your workforce needs for the upcoming construction season with seasoned employees looking for an opportunity with your company.
