Some of the Community Job Fair providers include, Illinois Department of Employment Security, MasterCard, DeVry, Illinois Institute of Art, Amway Global, I-Hispano, and the Computer Training Institute of Chicago among many more.

Local residents will also have a chance to speak with representatives from the hiring companies and give out their resume. This event is free and open to the public.
