CFCC hosted a healthcare career fair
WILMINGTON, NC (WWAY) — Cape Fear Community College hosted a healthcare career fair in Daniel’s Hall at Union Station on Tuesday afternoon. The premiere sponsor of the event was Novant Health.
Over 50 local providers participated in the event for students and community members to explore healthcare career options.
One attendee, Veronica Magallon, is studying to become a certified nursing assistant and she says the face-to-face interaction was helpful.
“It’s like only a name, on a website or something. They don’t get to know the person’s personality or intentions. I feel like it’s a closer relation to get to know who you are actually hiring versus just a name and number,” Magallon said.
Magallon adds — a lot of the companies at the career fair use Handshake which is a tool for students to find a job in their career path.
