Northwest Assistance Ministries hosted a job fair Oct. 4 that included more than 35 employers from sectors, such as oil and gas, law enforcement and finance.

Other industries were there as well along with representatives from nonprofits and other organizations.

“It was a great event, and the feedback we received from employers and job seekers alike was very positive,” said Mary Silbert, Director of NAM’s Learning Center. “Job seekers loved the mix of companies that were at the career fair, and they especially enjoyed the presentation from Bill Proctor on emotional intelligence and job search.”

This was the third annual NAM/BJM job fair, with one planned for next year in the fall. Between Jobs Ministry, located on Fellowship Lane in Spring, partnered with NAM to co-host the annual job fair.

Northwest Assistance Ministries, located on Kuykendahl Road, Houston, is a nonprofit social service agency that provides community assistance, such as Meals on Wheels, shelter, health, education and domestic violence awareness.
