New chance job fair
A job fair for former prison inmates will be held March 26 at Baldini's Casino at Rock Boulevard and Glendale Avenue in Sparks.
Alums of prison, local jails and other facilities who want help in preparing for the job fair can attend a prep session at the Mount Community Center at the corner of Highland Avenue and Valley Road on March 5 from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. Matters that will be dealt with in the prep sessions include “application etiquette, dress[ing] for success, job readiness, financial education, creat[ing] a resume, and doing mock interviews.”
The events are sponsored by the Statewide Prisoner Reentry Coalition, composed of the Washoe Sheriff's Office, Ridge House, the Nevada Department of Corrections, the Federal Bureau of Prisons and other intimidating agencies.
