A job fair for victims of Hurricane Katrina living in the area will be held at the Merle Manders Conference Center in Henry County Monday and Tuesday from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m.
As of early Friday afternoon, 35 companies have signed up and more are being added up to a maximum of 50. Some are coming prepared to hire employees on the spot if an interview can be conducted.
To reach the conference center, take Ga. Highway 138 to Stockbridge and turn right onto North Henry Boulevard. Take a left onto Burke Street and there will be signs directing motorists to the job fair.
Participants should bring their resume if they have one, or at least a list of job qualifications and contact information.
