A range of businesses and organisations will be on hand to offer information and advice on careers, skills, training, apprenticeships and volunteering, as well as help with CVs, interview techniques and finding work.
Chris White MP said: “Supporting our local economy is a priority for me. The progress made in Warwick and Leamington since 2010 is one of the best in the country in terms of unemployment, with the number of JSA claimants falling by 75 per cent. Furthermore, the number of unemployed youth claimants has decreased by 79 per cent in the same period.
“These figures are a credit to businesses locally. Across a wide range of sectors, Warwick and Leamington is punching above its weight but of course, more needs to be done and I hope that the Jobs Fair will provide those looking for work with helpful assistance in pursuing employment opportunities.
