WILMINGTON, NC (WWAY) — If you are in search for a new job, you might be in luck.

The first Cape Fear Career Expo is being held from 11  a.m. to 4 p.m. on Thursday in downtown Wilmington. The event is being held at The Coastline Convention Center.

There are dozens of careers to choose from and even interview rooms set up to help job seekers land that new position. One recruiter said this a great opportunity for anyone job hunting to meet employers face to face.

“They have all the employers in one spot, so it’s very beneficial and they can make that important first impression,” CFCC Associate Dean of Continuing Education Erica Talbert said.
