Job-seekers packed the El Campo Civic Center last week for the Wharton County Job Fair, connecting with nearly 60 employers despite the weather. Hosted by Workforce Solutions and local economic groups, the event drew over 140 attendees eager to meet businesses, law enforcement, military recruiters, and schools. Organizers emphasized the value of face-to-face networking in a digital age. Many applications were filled out, and officials called the event a success. Workforce Solutions continues to support job-seekers with training, resume help, and career resources at its Wharton office on FM 102.
