WASHINGTON, D.C.— Congresswoman Eleanor Holmes Norton (D-DC) today announced that her annual Job Fair—free and open only to District of Columbia residents—will be held Wednesday, August 1, 2018, from 10:00 a.m. – 3:00 p.m. at the Washington Convention Center (801 Mount Vernon PL NW). The Fair will feature employers from every sector and industry in the D.C. region, including non-profits, private businesses, retail, labor unions, restaurants, hotels and tourism, construction, federal and county governments, law enforcement, apprentice organizations and others. The Fair will also feature stations offering one-on-one consulting with workforce development professionals on applying for a job.

"Our Job Fair is highly anticipated each year because of its success with D.C. residents who are looking for a job or a better job," Norton said. "The Fair provides D.C. residents with the rare opportunity to meet face-to-face with employers from every sector across the region, all under one roof. It is a joy to see my constituents ‘shop' for jobs at our virtual job market each year."

Job-seekers must bring proof of D.C. residency (photo ID, voter registration card, pay stub, utility bill, or lease).
