Bloomington, IN (March 13, 2014) – The Bloomington Technology Partnership (BTP), a collaboration between the City of Bloomington, Indiana University and Bloomington Economic Development Corporation to foster the growth of Bloomington’s emerging high-tech economy, will host a free career and internship fair with Bloomington and Monroe County employers seeking to hire employees or interns in technology-related areas.
The career and internship fair, organized with assistance from IU School of Informatics and Computing, is open to the public and will be held on April 8th, 2014 at the Bloomington/Monroe County Convention Center at 302 S College Avenue in Bloomington from 2:00-6:00 p.m. Light snacks and beverages will be provided to attendees.
“Our previous career fairs have been very successful, and the Bloomington area’s tech sector saw significant growth in 2013,” said Katie Birge, director of the Bloomington Technology Partnership. “This is an opportunity for local tech employers to find the talent they need for their growing companies, and we welcome out-of-town job seekers to learn what the Bloomington area has to offer.”
