Four job fairs are coming to South Lanarkshire over the next month to help locals decide on their next career move.
The events will see lots of local employers with current vacancies in attendance.
Hamilton, East Kilbride and Cambuslang will all play host to the job opportunity sessions which will be of welcome assistance to those affected by furlough, unemployment or work issues caused throughout the pandemic.
There will also be information on jobs and Kickstarter schemes with South Lanarkshire Council, as well the opportunity to discuss employability support with council staff.
Chair of South Lanarkshire Council's finance and corporate resources committee, Councillor Gladys Miller, said: “If you are looking for work then these job fairs will provide the opportunity for you to talk directly to local employers as well as finding out about what the council can offer.
“There is no need to pre-book, feel free to drop in at a time and location that suits you.
“We are aware that many local businesses are facing skills shortages and that many residents are finding themselves at the end of the furlough scheme or unemployed.
“We’re looking to help match up local jobs to local people.”
The job fairs will all be running between 11am and 3pm on the following dates and locations:
• Friday, October 22 – Chatelherault Lodge, Chatelerhault Country Park, Hamilton, ML3 7 UE
