There will be opportunities for students as young as 16 as well as graduating seniors looking to enter the workforce.
The event is being held at the UW-Milwaukee Student Union on March 14, 2018.
Students who have attended a Work Readiness Session at school, or will attend one this winter, should plan on attending. These students should stop by their College and Career Center for more details and make sure they receive a permission slip for the event.
