Cavendish job fair held on Saturday to attract more students

The Tourism Industry Association of Prince Edward Island is holding its annual Cavendish Job Fair on Saturday as the area prepares for tourist season.

Over 100 jobs are up for grabs in the hospitality and tourism industry.

In past years the fair was held during the week, but coordinator Debbie Mol says this year they wanted to make a change.

"We're having the job fair on the Saturday, a change from previous years, hoping to attract more people and hoping to attract more students because they would be off on the weekend," she said. "The hours this year are from 10 to three which is a bit of a change as well."

The job fair is at the Stanley Bridge Resort and Conference Centre.

Job seekers may be interviewed and possibly hired at the event.
