Better Together will be hosting its Nationwide Day of Second Chances Job Fair at Miami Vineyard Community Church, 12727 SW 122nd Ave, Miami on April 30 from 11 a.m. – 2 p.m.

Job seekers facing barriers to employment will have the chance to meet with hiring employers.

Employment barriers can come in many forms, including homelessness, previous incarceration, lack of reliable child care or transportation, or gaps on a resume. Better Together is breaking down these employment barriers by hosting a series of background-friendly job fairs in partnership with churches across the country – including Florida, Illinois, Ohio and Washington, D.C. – as part of the nonprofit’s Nationwide Day of Second Chances.

The job fair will feature employers who are prepared to interview Miami-area job seekers and offer jobs on the spot, giving hope to those who are struggling to break through the impersonal and unforgiving algorithms of online job applications.

Additional resources include free one-on-one job coaching sessions to review resumes and interviewing skills, free haircuts and clothing to help candidates feel and look their best. Nearly all job seekers leave with hope in their hearts as candidates ring the opportunity bell upon receiving a job offer or interview as a celebration of their wins.

Hiring employers and job seekers can still register for the event at BetterTogetherUS.org/NWDSC.
