The Star Tribune will be a Career Expo on Tuesday, January 13, 2009 at the Minneapolis Convention Center where job seekers can find jobs in many different sectors, including engineering, technology and healthcare.  The expo is from 11AM to 4PM; the admission is free.

Not only can you find employers wanting to read your resume (yes, do bring many copies of your resume), but there will also be speakers giving presentations on many different topics, including:

Saving Money After a Job Loss
Transitioning Your Skills to a Healthcare Career
Networking in a Depressed Economy

There's also a discussion on immigrating and working in the healthcare field in Alberta, Canada.  It appears the economy is booming in Alberta and they need healthcare workers.  So, if you living in the Minneapolis area and are looking for work in the healthcare field, you may want to go to the expo and attend the presentation. 

You can also find out more about working in the healthcare field in Albert, Canada by going to http://www.healthjobs.ab.ca/ 

Remember, when you attend a job fair or expo, do remember to dress as if you're going to an interview.  Often times employers give interviews on the spot.  And, do make sure you bring plenty of copies of your resume, and that it is up to date.

The Minneapolis Convention Center is located at 1301 2nd Ave S.
