The team at Recruiting Nevada is proud to announce that we have changed the name of the Opportunity Boulevard Career Fair to the LasVegasSun.com Career Fair. The first event held under the new name will be on August 20, 2009 at Green Valley Ranch. With the tightening economy it made sense to partner with LasVegasSun.com to gain added media exposure and remain the most prominent Las Vegas career fair.
As many of you already now, the Las Vegas Sun has had a longstanding history in the Las Vegas valley and is well known for winning several national awards, with the most recent being a Pulitzer Prize. Born from a movement to aid the little guy, the Las Vegas Sun has been an important part of the Las Vegas community for more than 50 years. Founding publisher Hank Greenspun died in 1989, but he left a legacy of intrepid and forthright journalism that Sun reporters and editors follow to this day.
The seeds of the Las Vegas Sun were planted in 1949 when the town’s only newspaper, the Review-Journal, locked out members of the printing union. As a result, the International Typographical Union began its own newspaper on May 3, 1950, but struggled financially. The ITU then turned to Hank Greenspun.
The LasVegasSun.com Career Fair will continue to be recognized around the valley as the only career fair worth attending for both job seekers and employers.
LasVegasSun.com Career Fairs are held exclusively at Green Valley Ranch in the Estancia Ballroom. The next career fair will be on August 20, 2009 from noon to 4:00 pm. As with past events, there is a $100 discount on all early registrations. Additionally, a free job posting will immediately be placed on the Recruiting Nevada Network, generating nearly 1 million monthly page views. Booth(s) must be reserved by August 1, 2009 in order to receive these discounts.
