How to Get Hired at a Construction Company
📅 Wednesday, October 21, 2026 🕐 5:30 PM – 6:30 PM 📍 Side room, inside the career fair
One hour, straight from people who do the hiring. Sit down in the middle of the fair, then walk back out onto the floor and use it the same evening.
▸ What construction and trades employers actually screen for ▸ How to apply with no trade experience — and what counts instead ▸ Apprenticeships, paid training, and how to qualify ▸ What to say at the booth so you leave with an interview ▸ The questions to ask before you take the job
The workshop is free and runs inside the fair — you do not need to leave and come back. Seating in the side room is limited, so register separately; a confirmation email follows straight away.
Contractors, suppliers, trade schools, public agencies, and military recruiters who have hired at SacJobs events. The October line-up is being confirmed now — register and we'll email it to you as soon as it's set.
