Dear Outer Banks Chamber Member,

The Outer Banks Chamber of Commerce and Coastal Staffing LLC cordially invite you to participate in OBX Success, a Job Search Training and Job Fair weekend February 22 & 23, 2013. Location will be at the Sea Ranch Resort in Kill Devil Hills.

Enclosed please find the2013 vendor regulations and application form. Please let this serve as your invitation to exhibit and accept applications for employment at our Saturday Job Fair. Job Fair hours on Saturday will be 11 a.m. to 3 p.m.

We have several important goals for this event. On Friday, from 4 – 7 p.m., we’ll host educational sessions to help job applicants review their resumes and prepare for job interviews. On Saturday, they’ll be able to put their skills to work as they visit with potential employers and apply for the opportunity to work for you.

We recognize the importance of filling the right positions with qualified people. We’ll be advertising the event locally, through the NCESC office, high schools, colleges, and media. We’ll also be marketing to several nearby colleges and universities, to increase the pool of applicants for our hospitality and customer service focused jobs.

The cost for a vendor table at this event is $50 for Chamber members and includes a table and two chairs (you bring applications, business cards, table cloth, banner, signage for your booth). Non-members can participate as space allows at $100 per table.

We hope that you will participate on February 23, 2013! Please review the attached application and let me know if there are any questions.

Cordially,

Laurie Harris, ChairAngie Brady-Daniels
