The Offaly Rose Nicole Heffernan has lent her support to the Offaly Job Fair
LOCAL Dail Deputies, Tony McCormack and John Clendennen will open the fourth annual Offaly Job Fair this Saturday.
Job seekers in their hundreds are expected to flock to the Tullamore Court Hotel on Saturday next, June 14, for the event.
The fair is organised by Tullamore & District Chamber of Commerce along with partners, Offaly Local Development, Offaly Local Enterprise Office, Technological University of the Shannon and Laois and Offaly Education and Training Board.
This event will be held in the Tullamore Court Hotel on Saturday, between 10.30 am and 3.00 pm.
The Job Fair has the capacity to cater for about 50 businesses who will be able to meet with potential future employees and inform them of their vacancies.

“The event will be heavily marketed to attract job seekers especially the employee market who are leaving our county each day on long commutes,” said Chamber President, Caroline Collins,.
She said the previous three fairs proved to be great successes with very positive feedback from both job hunters and businesses.
Ms Collins added that a copy of the application form and full details are available on the Chamber Website: www.tullamorechamber.com or by contacting Mairead Guinan in the Chamber Office – info@tullamorechamber.com.
She added: “There is a cost to the event which is based on the size of businesses but we’ve endeavoured to keep this to the minimum.”
The event was officially launched at an informal function in the Tullamore DEW Distillery and Visitor Centre in late May.
Pride of place at the launch was the beautiful Irish Wolfhund named Bród, the proud symbol of Tullamore DEW.
The Chamber President paid tribute to the body's partners, Offaly Local Development, Offaly Local Enterprise Office, Laois and Offaly Education and Training Board, Offaly County Council and the Technical University of the Shannon, who are again co-hosting the fair.
