We started this Pursuit of Employment's e-venture after our visiting The National Job Fair & Training Expo (NJF&TE) two years ago.

This 'Ultimate Recruitment Event!' is the largest in the Ontario job and career fair industry with a multimedia advertising campaign of over $350,000 in value.

But only a couple of bloggers write about their job fairs' experience.
To launch a successful career with a blog, it's better to write celebrity gossip, or to criticize mainstream media, or to set up political columns, or to create sports chat, or to do all of the above.

See you at The National Job Fair & Training Expo 10th-Anniversary Edition in Toronto.

National Job Fair on tap
We all know where the good-paying jobs are: In government, where 34,000 Ontario civil servants and employees, who work at Crown corporations, hospitals, municipalities, colleges and universities earn more than $100,000 a year.
That's up 24% from 2005.
Many of them earn twice that amount if they're lucky enough to work for hydro or the scandal-ridden Ontario Lottery and Gaming Corp.
Meanwhile, many small businesses complain they can't find workers to fill job vacancies.
At the same time, immigrants with skills can't find jobs.
So, to hear about where the jobs are and how to break down the job barriers, come out to the National Job Fair at the Metro Toronto Convention Centre. I'm speaking there at 3 p.m. Tuesday.
