If you're looking for work in food, the event will provide face time with food businesses and potential employers, many of them with active job openings. You can meet leaders in the sustainable food movement, learn about their hiring and recruiting practices, get an impromptu interview resume and cover letter-free, learn about volunteering, and hear about new initiatives and projects sponsored by the good food movement.
The table fee for potential employers is $100, payable upon acceptance.
For the price of the ticket, potential employers get 2 free Good Food Job posts, access to more than 400 job seekers with a passion for sustainable food, and the chance to network with 40 other good food businesses.
Even if not actively hiring, food vendors are encouraged to come out and build the good food movement by talking to job seekers, offering them advice on their search, helping them become better job applicants, and inspiring the people who are the future of the good food movement.
Participants will be chosen from an applicant pool.
