Public Works Career Fair @ The Expo





Looking for help either finding a career or hiring staff? We are joining forces with the New England Public Works Expo to make that happen. We are inviting several Vocational Schools from around the state to attend and we will work to match these high school students into co-ops.


When: September 21st & 22nd, 2022

Time: 8:00 a.m. - 3:00 p.m.

Location: Royal Plaza Trade Center, Marlborough, MA




How it works



Employers are in dire need of good workers. There are many high school students who are preparing to graduate and are looking for work and a career but they don't know where to start. We are here to help bring you both together. We are inviting students from the schools below to attend (we also have contacts with vocational schools across the state). The students interested in a co-op or internship will register and send us their information and we will help connect them to employers (Vendors and Public Works Departments) that register.





What is a Co-op?



During the school year students attend academics for one week and then shop for the next week, alternating. During a Co-op students would work at your facility for their shop week instead of going to school. Co-ops are paid by the company hiring them. It is a great way for students to get a first hand look into the careers that are available while helping the employer to find a great match and get extra help. Once an employer agrees to take a co-op student there is an agreement made between the school and the employer and the school will perform a work site safety check. For more information please register below.
