(New Braunfels) – Grab your resumes. The Cibolo Economic Development Corporation (CEDC), the Greater New Braunfels Chamber of Commerce (GNBCC), the Schertz Economic Development Corporation (Schertz EDC) and the Seguin Economic Development Corporation (Seguin EDC) are partnering to host the first Regional Job Fair of 2023.

The event is scheduled to take place Thursday at the McKenna Events Center, located at 801 W. San Antonio St., New Braunfels from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m.

This event is free to the public and will feature over 50 employers who are ready to hire for immediate job openings across multiple industries and skills. This is the first Regional Job Fair to include neighboring community Cibolo.

“A strong and vibrant regional economy depends on the success of its businesses and the employment opportunities they provide. Our regional partnership is committed to supporting economic growth in the region by bringing employers and job seekers together multiple times throughout the year. We are confident that our first regional job fair of the year will help connect talented individuals with our great local companies, fostering new partnerships and driving economic development in our region.” said Michele Boggs, vice president of economic development at the New Braunfels Chamber.

Job seekers can expect to find hundreds of openings in entry, intermediate and advanced-level positions in a wide range of industries including manufacturing, government, non-profit administration, tech, entertainment, public education, and more.

“Participating with our economic development partners in a coordinated job fair not only underscores the impressive mixture of employers that contribute to the economic health and opportunities of our cities, but also highlights the talent pool of individuals with diverse experiences and skills that set up our region for long[1]term success.” said Kelsee Jordan Lee, economic development director for the city of Cibolo.

Organizers say this regional effort among Cibolo, New Braunfels, Schertz and Seguin gives job seekers and employers the opportunity to connect and engage as exciting new positions become available in the area.

Business casual attire is recommended for job seekers who plan to attend along with multiple copies of their updated resumes.

Many employers will be conducting on-site interviews and extending employment offers during the event. To follow details of the job fair more closely check out the Facebook pages for the New Braunfels Chamber, Seguin EDC, Schertz EDC and/or Cibolo EDC.
