Employers and employees will meet for four hours in Decatur Wednesday for a much-anticipated job fair hosted by State Representative Sue Scherer and Workforce Investment Solutions.

Larry Peterson implores displaced workers or anyone seeking new opportunities to stop by and see what is available. He indicates there will be employers from all over DeWitt and Macon Counties.

Employers are likely not going to be conducting interviews on-site, however, Peterson says that doesn't mean you won't have the chance to make yourself stand out. He explains you'll be able to interact with these employers and sell yourself.

The job fair is from 10 am to 2 pm Wednesday (today) at the Knights of Columbus Hall at 502 North Street in Decatur. Peterson says the initial opening is usually the busiest they get. He says if you want more one-on-one time, the noon hour is usually the best.
