SURREY –Progressive Intercultural Community Services (PICS) Society invited thousands of hopeful and positive job seekers to speak directly with promising employers regarding job opportunities that may apply to their particular skills and background at the highly successful 7th Annual Mega Job Fair on July 21st.

The Mega Job Fairs organized by PICS are one of a kind. This year the 7th Annual Mega Job Fair had 60 exhibitors and approximately 7700 attendees. Thrifty Foods, Michaels and Shaw Cable had a long queue of job seekers all day. Employers from as far as Illinois attended the Mega Job Fair, and were both impressed and ecstatic to reach out to so many potential employees. One employer in particular interviewed over 100 people on-site, and many of those individuals are scheduled for training in August.
