July 13th, the Last Public Event at Mellon Arena – Ever!

EmploymentGuide.com® and The Urban League of Greater Pittsburgh partner to sponsor the “2010 Pittsburgh Employment and Career Education Expo

We all know what the first events at the new Consol Energy Center will be. We now know what the very last event at Mellon Arena will be. Appropriately hundreds of Pittsburgh area job seekers will benefit!

As the local economy begins to recover from the worst local downturn since the collapse of the steel mills, EmploymentGuide.com and The Urban League of Greater Pittsburgh and have combined efforts for the sixth consecutive year to bring jobseekers together with companies who seek their talents.

On Tuesday, July 13th, from 10:00AM to 3:00PM at Mellon Arena more than 35 Pittsburgh area employers and schools, featuring career opportunities from HCR Manorcare and the all new Fairmont Hotel in downtown Pittsburgh, will meet and interview hundreds of job seekers at the 2010 Pittsburgh Diversity Employment and Career Education Expo.

Attendance is expected to exceed 1,000 Pittsburgh area residents seeking a new career. Last years 3 events attracted over 4,000 total job seekers and resulted in more than 450 job offers. Job Seekers will enter through gate 10. Attendance for job seekers is free.



The 2010 Pittsburgh Employment and Career Education Expo is part of EmploymentGuide.com’s “Hire Commitment” Job Fair Series, taking place in more than 50 cities across the country throughout 2010.

Participating employers will seek to fill entry-level to management level positions and represent industries such as healthcare, nursing, customer service, hospitality, sales, skilled trades, banking/finance, security and more. Also in attendance at the job fair are associations interested in supporting their members including: the AARP Foundation WorkSearch and the Allegheny County Department of Veteran’s Affairs.
