GIA is providing a free service for job seekers looking for new opportunities. The GIA Mini Career Fair is a great venue to learn about the current state of employment in the jewelry industry and perhaps even meet potential employers looking for new staff, including EyeOnJewels.

The Mini Fair includes a “Working to Win” panel featuring some of the industry’s top executives and career coaching sessions with business leaders providing advice in various subject areas, including resume review, career information, design, networking, entrepreneurship and starting your own business. Although there will be no on-site recruiting, GIA will provide information on the career opportunities being offered by show exhibitors and buyers.

“This is an especially critical time for GIA to provide its services and network of industry leaders in support of those pursuing a career in gems and jewelry,” said Kathryn Kimmel, vice president, chief Marketing officer and founder of the GIA Jewelry Career Fair. “Whether attending this event as a first-time job seeker or as a seasoned professional looking to re-invent themselves, this event will provide invaluable information.”
