This year, in partnership with Corban University, will offer a job fair on opening day of the expo, from 1 to 4 p.m. Tuesday, Nov. 15. Guests can learn about current openings and career opportunities. Openings include entry level to highly-skilled positions, professional opportunities and more.
Career Day at the expo is Wednesday, Nov. 16. All youth agriculture classes are encouraged to attend the expo free of charge. Transportation scholarships are available at www.wvaexpo.com to offset the cost of fuel.
