Students and young adults aged 16-21 who want to jumpstart their careers or find summer work and internships are invited to attend a free Summer Job Fair that will be hosted by State Senator Seth Lewis (R-Bartlett) on April 24 in Carol Stream. State Representatives Amy Grant (R-Wheaton) and Jennifer Sanalitro (R-Hanover Park) are co-hosting the event.
“Summer will be here before we know it, and high school and college students are eager to find summer opportunities that will help them grow and learn beneficial skills,” said Lewis. “Through the opportunities available at this job fair, students can gain valuable work experience that will help build confidence and look great on college applications, resumes, and future job applications.”

Several area businesses that are actively hiring for summer help, year-round employment, and/or internships will be under one roof for this high-impact hiring event. Business representatives will be able to build talent pipelines for entry-level positions and network with other businesses to boost visibility in the region.
“Those who attend are encouraged to dress for success and be prepared for on-site interviews,” added Lewis. “By connecting eager job seekers with area employers, young people can jumpstart their careers and businesses can tap local talent for hard-to-fill positions and other job vacancies.”
There are still a few booths available for featured businesses at this event. Those interested in reserving a free table should contact Abby at amccarthy@sgop.ilga.gov. Those with questions about this job fair can also contact Abby or call Senator Lewis’ legislative office at (630) 349-0645.
