Job Fairs for RVers in Lakeland, FL and Mesa, AZ

Workamper® News, Inc will produce two events with a wide range of employers who will be interviewing job seekers at the Workamper News Job Fairs, Jan. 10-11, 2008 at the Lakeland Center, Lakeland, FL, and Jan. 29-30, 2008 at the Mesa Convention Center in Mesa, AZ.

The Job Fairs will provide Workampers, persons who combine any type of full-time or part-time working with RV camping, an opportunity for face-to-face interviews with employers from across America. Thousands of great part-time and full-time Workamping jobs will be available.

Attendees will have the opportunity to participate in seminar sessions on topics ranging from Workamping Basics to RV Retirement Planning to Resumé Writing. Seminars will be given by four different presenters over the two day Job Fair.

“We enjoy going to Job Fairs because it is nice to meet the employers and it is a good chance to ask questions. We like to go both days so we can visit all of the booths, have time for interviews and take in a seminar or two,” said Ted and Joan Semprini, Workampers from Altoona, IA.

Workamper employers can include private campgrounds, state and national parks, amusement facilities, hotels, monuments, motor sports, sales, etc. Exhibit spaces are being allotted on a first-come, first-served basis. Employers may reserve space by calling Workamper® News at 501-362-2637.

Workampers can avoid the long lines at the door by obtaining their tickets ahead of time. Call 501-362-2637 for ticket information. Additional Job Fair information and attendee camping is available at:

  • I own a company that could use Workcampers, but when I contacted the company to attend the get together as a vendor, I was shocked how much they wanted! (As in you want HOW MUCH?!) The price they charge the companies puts it out of reach of the hundreds of smaller companies that can't compete with Disney, major campgrounds and so on...and that's just too bad. Too bad for the dozen or so of people I would have hired and too bad for us...and too bad for the company that sponsors the job fair...they lost the money that they would have made from me. I guess it's like an airplane...once that plane takes off, there's no chance of making money off of an empty seat.

  • I'm sorry you won't be able to attend, but I can understand. These events are expensive to put on, unfortunately.

    It is my understanding that there are opportunities for smaller employers to share a booth with others. That might work for you. Jaimie
