KELOWNA – If you’re looking to kickstart your career, the 2015 Kelowna Job Fair is a great place to begin.

Hosted by Juice FM and Vista Radio, the Kelowna Job Fair puts you and your resume in direct contact with potential employers.

In fact, you should be prepared for on-the-spot interviews and be ready to put your best foot forward with managers and human resource personnel.

The job fair is open to businesses and the jobs on tap cover the full range of positions including full-time, part-time, seasonal, entry-level and managerial.

This year’s list includes Summerhill Pyramid Winery, Cintas, Shaw, Norelco Cabinets, Okanagan Staffing, All Safe Traffic Control, Axis Family Resources and Wild Play Element Parks.

Prospective employers still have time to get a table at the event by contacting the organizers.

The job fair goes ahead Saturday, May 2, from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. at the Fairfield Inn and Suites, 1665 Powick Rd. in Kelowna.

John began life as a journalist through the Other Press, the independent student newspaper for Douglas College in New Westminster. The fluid nature of student journalism meant he was soon running the place, learning on the fly how to publish a newspaper.

It wasn’t until he moved to Kelowna he broke into the mainstream media, working for Okanagan Sunday, then the Kelowna Daily Courier and Okanagan Saturday doing news graphics and page layout. He carried on with the Kelowna Capital News, covering health and education while also working on special projects, including the design and launch of a mass market daily newspaper. After 12 years there, John rejoined the Kelowna Daily Courier as editor of the Westside Weekly, directing news coverage as the Westside became West Kelowna.

But digital media beckoned and John joined Kelowna.com as assistant editor and reporter, riding the start-up as it at first soared then went down in flames. Now John is turning dirt as city hall reporter for iNFOnews.ca where he brings his long experience to bear on the civic issues of the day.
