With an increasing need for quality classified employees to staff school sites and district offices, the Santa Clara County Office of Education is launching its inaugural Santa Clara County Job Fair from 9 a.m. to 2 p.m. Oct. 24 at the 1290 Ridder Park Drive offices.
Employers from 20 school districts and community colleges will be on hand to interview candidates for classified positions such as bus drivers, clerical staff, custodians, cooks, classroom assistants and other “behind the scenes” employees who keep students safe and ensure schools run smoothly.
Applicants who register in advance will be pre-screened, tested for positions in which they’re interested and allowed in early at 9 a.m. on the day of the job fair to get first crack with hiring managers.
Walk-ins are welcome on the day of the event until the venue reaches capacity; walk-ins will have to be screened manually.
“Knowing how valuable our Teacher Recruitment Fair is for county schools in seeking well-qualified certificated staff, we saw this as a great opportunity to expand the reach of our services to our district partners,” SCCOE Superintendent Jon Gundry said. “This event is a win/win for both districts in need of excellent non-teaching staff members, and candidates looking for rewarding careers serving our communities.”
