Career Week for Students and Young Adults

South Essex Community Council (SECC) is excited to announce the first ever Career Week, hosted by SECC’s Career Hub on March 14-18 from 1-4pm each day. Students and Young Adults aged 14-29 are invited to attend the free 5-day long Career Week events that feature speakers from different career paths, resume tips, free headshots, and individual appointments with Career Counsellors.

The week-long event will take place at SECC’s Leamington Office and have a variety of speakers from various careers including: policing, law, healthcare, skilled trades, manufacturing and social media marketing. There will also be sessions on in demand jobs in Essex County, financial assistance to attend post-secondary education and matching your career path to your personality type.

Resume help and career counselling will be available on a drop-in basis daily from 1 pm – 2 pm. Participants must register for the Career sessions due to space limitations. Parents are welcome to attend. For each session attended, individuals will receive a ballot to be placed in a draw for a pair of Apple AirPods and a Starbucks Gift Card.

Free transit is available for those who need it. For more information, call the office at 519-326-8629 or message us on Instagram at @SouthEssexCC.
