Thousands of jobs will be up for grabs Tuesday in Huntsville during a regional job fair hosted by the Alabama Department of Labor.

ADOL spokeswoman Tara Hutchison said approximately 160 employers with more than 4,000 jobs will be available from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m. Tuesday at the Von Braun Center. The job fair is free and open to the public, but residents must register prior to the hiring event.

"More than 2,000 people have already pre-registered," Hutchison said. "We are still accepting applications from employers through the end of today."

The Alabama Career Center System, a division of ADOL, is partnering with the City of Huntsville and WAFF 48 for the job fair. Belk, Polaris, Home Depot, GE Aviation, Regions Bank, Tyledyne Brown Engineering and other employers will attend.

To pre-register, ADOL suggests visiting www.labor.alabama.gov/jobfair and bringing a printed copy of the confirmation. Job seekers can also save it on their phones before attending the event.

On-site registration will also be available. Attendees should dress professionally, be prepared to interview and bring multiple copies of their resume.



"We are excited to host our first regional job fair in North Alabama," said Alabama Department of Labor Secretary Fitzgerald Washington. "A huge variety of employers have registered for the job fair, encompassing all sorts of career fields, such as engineering, hospitality, banking, retail, education, and more. All of them have available jobs to fill - it's one of our requirements to participate. This is a great opportunity for anyone looking for a job or looking for a change in career."
