Preparing to Attend a Virtual Job Fair

**Speaker 1:** Good morning, everybody. I’ll be with you momentarily. We’re just letting some more people in, and then we’ll get started.

We’re almost there, guys. Thank you for your patience. Just another second.

I’m having one user say they cannot hear me. Is everybody hearing me okay? If I could just get a couple thumbs-up out there. Okay, thank you. Thank you.

All right, it looks like we have everybody in. Yesenia, I’m going to turn the floor over to you. I did mute you, so if you could just unmute yourself.

**Yesenia:** Yes, good morning, everybody. I’m sorry you cannot see me. I’m having issues with my video on my end.

Welcome. We’re going to have a tutorial on how to use Premier Virtual for those of you who might be new to the system, or for those of you who have used it before and are having issues.

All I’m going to ask is that you make sure you mute yourself. Glenn will let you know that if you have any questions during the presentation, make sure you enter your question in the chat. I’ll check the chat for Glenn while he is doing the presentation and let him know if there are any questions.

Glenn Bralo is going to be our presenter today, so I hope this presentation is going to be useful to you. If you have any questions after the event, please let me know. I will enter my email in the chat.

Go ahead, Glenn.

**Glenn:** Awesome. Well, thank you, Yesenia.

Just as an introduction, my name is Glenn Bralo. I am the Director of Client Success Management here at Premier Virtual. What that means is I provide all the training and support and hopefully make your experience on the platform that much easier.

What we’re going to do today is a walkthrough on the job seeker side, right from the registration page: how to get yourself registered, how to build out your profile so that it looks maximized when recruiters are looking at it, and then, most importantly, event-day best practices—what it’s going to look like when you go into the lobby of an event, how you visit booths and talk to recruiters, and then after the event, we do have something called “My Journey,” which tracks your journey through the event so that you’ll be able to go back and follow up with companies. It does track your journey through the entire event, which becomes very helpful with follow-up.

With all that being said, I’m going to share my screen and we’re going to get started. As Yesenia had mentioned, we do have a large crowd in here today. If you do have questions, please put them in the chat. I’ll try to take some breaks in between just to make sure that those questions are being answered, and then at the end we’ll open it up to some Q&A as well.

Thank you all for joining, and we’ll get started.

For today’s training purposes, I will be using my training and tutorial event. This is not the event that you’re attending, but the idea is going to be completely the same. The only things that are going to look a little different are the companies that are in there and some of the graphic images.

When you are invited to an event by the event host, you are sent a registration link, and that registration link is unique to that specific event.

When you come to a registration page, you’re going to notice that there’s a graphic image off to the left-hand side. I usually call this the title page of the event. You might see the host logo, the name of the event, and any partnerships.

On the opposite side, you’re going to see, at the top, a host point of contact. We at Premier Virtual will answer any technical questions during this training. I’m going to show you how to get in touch with Premier Virtual right through the platform so that if you do need our support, we are here to help you. But if you have any host-related questions for MassHire, there will be a host point of contact up there so you can reach out to them directly.

You’ll see an event timer, which is going to count down how much time is remaining until your event begins. Once the event starts, it’ll count down how much time is remaining. Right below that, you’re going to see a schedule of the event, and the schedule will be listed there with your live times and closing times.

Now, the most important part of a registration page is going to be this middle section, and that is going to be your information section. This is direct messaging from the event host to you as a job seeker. The host has put some content there for you to read, and there also is an attendee training video that will be posted as well. It’s pretty much what we’re going to be covering here today, and we also are recording this session for distribution after.

When you’re ready to register, you’re going to want to click “Register for Event,” and this is going to take you to what we call the authentication page.

On the authentication page, you have two options: “Register as an Attendee” or “Sign In.” If you have never been on the platform, you will use the “Register as an Attendee” option, because we need you to set up your credentials, which will be a valid email address, then creating and confirming a password, and accepting the terms and conditions.

If you come back for future events, you can use the “Sign In” option because you already have credentials and already have a profile on the platform. So “Register as an Attendee” will just be for the first time that you’re coming in.

We’ll go ahead and add an email in here for a job seeker, create and confirm that password, accept the terms and conditions, and then, if you want, you can check the box to receive any job seeker tips and advice. We occasionally send out some newsletters, but you can feel free to check that off if you’d like to be part of that list.

Once you select “Register,” this is going to walk you into what we call a setup wizard. The setup wizard is going to walk you through the process to get registered and build out your profile.

The first step is going to be your personal information: first and last name. Then you’re going to see “Job Title,” and the job title is going to be the job title that you are looking for. Maybe I’m looking for something like Customer Service Manager.

If you are a military veteran, active duty, guard, or reservist, you can mark yourself here as yes. If you do mark yourself as yes, what we will do is place an American flag next to your profile picture, and then you will be represented as U.S. military in the event. If I do have anybody on the call today, thank you for your service.

Under location, you’re going to see a pencil. If we click on the pencil, this will bring you to what we call the location picker. You’re going to type in your city, and as you do, you’re going to see a drop-down list appear. Go find your city and select it, and then you’ll add your ZIP code and your phone number.

You do want to make sure you are putting in a valid phone number, because this is going to be how recruiters will reach out to you after the event for any follow-up.

Then, if you choose to—and it is recommended—you can put in your LinkedIn URL here. It’s not required, but it is encouraged. I know a lot of recruiters do like to look at LinkedIn pages, so if you do have a LinkedIn account, you can put in your URL here.

We’ll continue on now to step number two, which is going to be an option for you to get text reminders about the event. We do send out email reminders to you, but you also have the option to add your phone number in for text reminders. Then what you would do is click “Verify Phone.” We would send you a text message with a code, you’d enter that code in, and then you’d be set up for SMS reminders.

Step number three is going to be where you add your photo. For this particular event, it is optional. You don’t have to. You’ll see in my training event it is required, but in your event, it is optional. If you click “Upload Image,” this will take you to your files, and you can go in and find your picture. Then your picture would be placed there.

You can see that the picture has now been uploaded, and then we’ll move on to Experience.

The Experience section is a place for you to let recruiters know what you have done in your past positions. This is a great way for a recruiter to get a very quick glance at what you have done without having to dive into a full resume during the event.

If I click “Edit,” this is going to open up all the different experiences, certifications, and security clearances that we have. Up at the top, you’re going to see certifications and security clearances, and then down below is going to be your job experience.

If I clicked into Customer Service, it is going to give me everything that we have in the system that relates to customer service. You can select up to 20 different levels of experience.

If that’s all I want to add, I’m going to go ahead and confirm, and you’ll see that my experience has now been added to my profile.

Now when we continue on to the next step, this is where you get to upload your resume. For the resume, we only accept PDF resumes. Word documents can sometimes carry viruses, so we only allow PDF documents. When we click “Upload PDF,” this is going to take you to your files. You can then find your resume, click Open, and you can see my resume has now been added.

Right below that, there is an option, if you choose, to opt in to get a free complimentary resume review. We do work with a third party called TopResume. If you check this box, what’s going to happen is we will automatically send your resume to TopResume. They will then send you back the results within 24 hours. They do also have additional services for resume rewrites, but the initial review is definitely going to be complimentary.

When we continue to the final step, this is going to be where you are required to answer what we call the job seeker registration questions. These are questions that the host is asking the job seekers at the time of registration.

My event is different, so the questions you see here are on my test event, but on the event you’re attending, just to give you an idea, one of them is: “Please enter your MassHire JobQuest ID number.” Others might include: “Are you a military veteran, yes or no?” “How did you learn about this event?” “What city or town do you live in?” and “What industry or work are you interested in?”

You will need to answer these questions. The box turns blue, and then you can continue forward. Once you get through all of the questions, the last question is going to say “Complete Registration.” This is what we want you to get through during this setup wizard, because if you don’t hit “Complete Registration,” you will not be registered for the event. You’ll kind of be held in limbo.

Once I hit “Complete Registration,” I’ve now been registered and I have this green tag underneath the graphic image on the registration page.

I’m going to move off to the side panel here, and we’re going to go to Settings. The first icon under Settings is going to be My Profile. Everything you just did in this wizard is going to be here in your profile.

Under General, if I click “Edit Profile,” this is where I could come in and make any changes to my profile picture, my experience, my location, my LinkedIn profile, and then you’ll see up at the top here there is a section that is not included in the setup wizard, but I do highly recommend that you go back in and add it, and that is your personal bio.

This could just be a little bit of information about your work history, a little bit about yourself, your strengths, but the bio is something that recruiters do look at.

Once I’ve made any changes, I hit “Save Changes,” and then those changes are now reflected.

I’m going to move down here to the Help section. All of our training is built into the platform. We are doing training here today, and we are going to cover everything you need to know, but if you do get stuck, click into the training and you’re going to see that the training we’re doing today is very similar to this one here. Any of our user guides down below are downloadable PDFs, and you can download those PDFs.

Under the Help Center, if you still have questions, if you still need help, we do have a built-in help center. When I click onto the Help Center, this is going to take you to our knowledge base. This is where I can come in and ask questions.

Some of our questions will also come with images or short videos to go along with them, but there is a pretty big knowledge base in here, and hopefully you can find your answers there.

You’re going to see right down below in the bottom corner the chat bubbles. In our Help Center, you can directly talk with our support team if you get stuck on anything at all. I will say our support team is impeccable in their response times, so don’t hesitate. If you need them, click on the chat bubbles and then you can start talking with our support team.

I’m going to move up to the top section here under Menu, and you’re going to see two tabs: Dashboard and Events.

The Dashboard is basically a one-stop shop for everything I just discussed here on the left. You can either click through the tabs on the left or through the Dashboard. You’re going to see boxed-off sections with any ongoing events. You can get back in to edit your profile, go back into our video tutorials, user guides, and FAQs. It basically just puts everything into one place.

The last tab we have here is the Events tab, and you’re going to see here in the Events tab that any event that you have ever registered for will be in here. They never go away. That means past events, you can always go back into and look at your data, your journey from the last event, and so on.

Right now I just have one event in here that I’m registered for, and we call this an event card. You’ll see down below there are some buttons: Access Lobby, Event Info, and My Journey.

My Journey we’re going to cover at the end of the training. Event Info just takes you back to the registration page in case you wanted to read up on the information section or watch the video. Access Lobby is how you’re going to gain entry into the lobby of the event.

When you come into the lobby of the event, you’re going to see what we call booth tiles displayed. These are all the companies that are in this event. If I wanted to talk to or look at information on a certain company, I can just go booth by booth and start visiting all of these different companies, or I can click into a company and that takes me into their booth.

Once I click on that booth tile, it takes me right into their booth, and then I can start to go through this company’s content.

You’re going to see there is an About section for the company where you can click on it to learn a little bit more about the organization. Please keep in mind this is a test event, so you’re seeing very short responses, but there will be an About section, there will be job postings where you can come in and look at the positions that this company has.

If I was interested in a certain position, I can come in and read the job description. I can see how many postings they have available, what the location is, and then some companies will add the salary amount. If they do, that will be displayed there as well.

Now if I wanted to submit my resume to this position, I can click “Submit Resume,” and you’re going to see that I can either upload a resume on the spot or, if I already have a resume on file that I added in the setup wizard, I can go ahead and select that resume and apply to the job.

My resume just got sent over to the recruiters in this booth in real time, so they will now have my resume submission.

You’re also going to see some booths may have three additional boxes, and we call these custom links. This is just an area for the company to showcase anything that they want about their organization. It could be something about benefits, it could be a tour of a facility, it could be something about their culture—maybe there’s a video or a website. This is just more information that the company is displaying. Website and social media will run down the side.

Now if I wanted to reach out to this company, right here on my chat column you’re going to see “Chat with [Company Name].” If I click on that blue button, it’s going to open up my chat. You’re going to see the company name at the top of my chat box. I come down to the bottom, and then I can send my message.

Now I’m getting an away message here because nobody’s signed into this booth right now, because it’s a training event. You’ll also be able to see at the top of the chat when you’re in this booth how many recruiters are online. As you can see right now, there are zero because this is a test event.

Let’s say I had a good conversation with them. I go back into the lobby and I want to go visit more booths, but I want to really find the booths that have what I’m looking for. Up above, you’re going to see filters, and I can come in and select filters for job category, job title, and location.

I can come in and select categories I’m interested in, apply those filters, and you’ll see my lobby changes to only show me the booths that fit that criteria. If I wanted to go one step further into job title or location, I could do that as well, and you’re going to see that the lobby changes each time.

I’m going to go ahead and go into another booth. In this event, you have an option to either talk directly with the recruiters in this booth or you have the option to schedule a time with them.

You’re going to see there is a “Book a Time” button. If I go through this company and I like what I see, I come in and look at their job postings, I’m interested in a position, I can go ahead and read the description, submit my resume, go through their information, but maybe I want to schedule a time to talk with them so I can go back to the lobby and continue my journey and see what other opportunities are out there.

When you click “Book a Time,” as long as the recruiters put time slots available, you will see time slots for you to select. If I come in and choose one, I can confirm it, and then you’re going to see a message that I scheduled a meeting with that company for a certain time, and the recruiter I scheduled with also just got that same message.

This will allow me to go back to the lobby and then continue my journey.

Now let’s say that I’ve gone through some booths here, I’ve applied to a bunch of jobs. One thing I want to point out is that down at the bottom of a booth, you get to leave yourself a ranking, a note, and a status, and this is going to be for your eyes. This will end up being in the tab we talked about, which is My Journey.

If I came in and left myself a note like, “Call Monday and talk to Rob to set up an interview,” then ranked the company highly because I’m right on the edge of getting an interview, and set the status to “Follow-up Needed,” anything that I put in here is going into My Journey.

If I go back to the lobby, once again I can clear out my filters, I can visit companies one by one, or I can once again use those filters.

I’m going to pause here just a second. I just want to see if there’s anything in the chat that I need to address.

I did have a question about our security policy on the platform and who has access to personal information. When you do sign up, if you want to click on the terms and conditions, there is information there. Our terms and conditions link is on the authentication page, and you can definitely go in there and read up on our security.

We are on AWS as a server, so it’s a very secure server. As far as your information, it’s going to go to the recruiters that you visit. If you visit a company, they’re going to get that information, as well as the host of the event. We don’t share your information with third parties, but if you visit a booth, they’re going to have that information to reach out to you after the event.

Another question: How long should the personal bio be? Good question. I wouldn’t make it too long. Recruiters are usually pretty busy in these events. They’ve got a lot of candidates coming in, a lot of conversations, a lot of profiles that they’re looking at. I would say maybe five sentences—just something that sums up your work history, your strengths, and any experience you want to relay. Look at it as a short little blurb to sell yourself to recruiters.

Is there a cost for Premier Virtual? There is not. There is no cost to you. You are being invited by MassHire to attend this event, and there is no cost.

Can you filter companies by the type of jobs you’re looking for? Yes, we just covered that in the filters.

Do we download Premier Virtual for the job fair? No. We are web-based. There is nothing to download. We are also mobile-friendly, although we do highly recommend that you operate on a computer if possible. But there is no app, there’s nothing to download, we are 100% web-based.

Have you already received the Premier Virtual URL? That would be a question for Yesenia.

I think I’ve got all the questions answered, so we will now continue on.

You’re going to see here that while we were answering questions, I just got this message that my meeting is going to start soon. So I got a two-minute reminder that my meeting with that company is going to be beginning.

I’m going to go back to that booth, and the recruiters from that booth will launch that meeting. When I come into the booth, I’m going to be getting a message from the recruiter saying that they have joined my meeting and to please respond to begin the meeting.

When that meeting starts, we’re not putting you into any video call immediately. We’re putting you into a text conversation, and that way the recruiters can ask a couple questions. They may invite you to a video call, but that initial launch of the meeting is a text-based exchange. As soon as you respond, your meeting has begun and you and that recruiter can start to talk.

The recruiters may be asking you pre-qualifying questions. They may be looking at your work history. They may have questions about your resume. When you do talk to recruiters, I do recommend giving some really pointed responses—not just, “Hello, hey, I’m here looking for information.” It would be something more like, “Hey, my name is Jennifer. I just spent some time in your booth. I noticed that you have a regional food safety position that I applied for. I sent my resume over. I’d love to talk to you about it and tell you about my experience.”

Try to give some really good, pointed responses to the recruiters when you are talking to them. That way, they know that you have already looked at their booth, you’re interested, and they know how to direct their conversation.

I’m just going to pretend that we’ve been talking back and forth here, I’ve been pre-qualified, they’ve asked me some questions. Maybe they ask, “Are you able to travel in the tri-county area?” Yes, I am. Then maybe they want to invite you to a video call, so they’ll most likely send you a message like, “Are you willing to do a video chat?” Yes, I am.

Once I say yes, what’s going to happen is the recruiter is going to send you a video invite. You’ll get a popup in the corner that says you’ve been invited to a video conference. When you click “Join,” you’re going to be prompted to accept your microphone and camera permissions. It is very important that you allow them. Otherwise, Premier Virtual will not have permission to use your mic and camera.

Once you click “Join Call,” you’ll be connected with that recruiter. Right down below there is the ability for you to blur your background—that’s going to be the second button in. You’re also going to be able to mute your mic and turn off your camera. There is a chat as part of this, so if they want to send you an application link, there is a chat built in. Then once that call is over, either you or the recruiter can click the red X, and that will end the video call.

If you are attending the event, I would be prepared to be on camera. A lot of times recruiters do like to go in and actually talk with you face to face. In the actual events, a lot of times these are not full-blown interviews, but they are conversations that may lead up to an interview after the event.

I’m going to come down here and leave a note that I spoke to Glenn. I wrote a note saying I’m very interested in the food quality position and need to follow up next week. I’m going to rank them five stars because I really want this job. Follow-up is needed. I’m done with my conversation with this booth, I move back to the lobby, and then I continue my journey. You’ll just continue that process from booth to booth, having conversations.

Recruiters may reach out to you first. When I do trainings with recruiters, I always try to tell them to reach out to candidates, greet them, and let them know that there is somebody there to answer their questions. So when you do come into a booth, there’s a very good chance that a recruiter will reach out to you just to let you know that they are there and ready to answer your questions.

I’m going to check the chat one more time, because next we’re going to move on to My Journey after the event.

Question: Within My Journey, how long are those details accessible? They never go away. You could essentially sign into your profile a year from now and go into My Journey, and you’ll have all of that information. We never remove it.

Another question about the LinkedIn URL: It must be in the HTTPS format, so you have to have the full link in there in HTTPS format. That is how the links are accepted.

Can you add a background? Not yet, but that is something we are looking at for a future roadmap. Currently, it is just the blur feature, so you cannot currently add a background.

Once you have gone through the event, visited the booths that you wanted to, and had some great conversations and made some great connections, what’s going to happen then is we’re going to go back to the lobby of the event and look at My Journey.

You’re going to see these tabs across the top. Under Actions Taken, anything that I did, such as leaving a ranking, leaving a status, leaving a note, or submitting a resume, all of that will be in there. You can see everything that you did will be there under Actions Taken.

The next one is Visited Booths. This is just going to give you a reminder of every booth that you visited. You can see it is date- and time-stamped. You can’t click on it to go back to the booth, but what it’s showing you is what booths you visited and the date and time stamp.

Chat Transcripts: every conversation that you had, there is a transcript for. You’ll see them broken out by booths that you had conversations with. If I click into one, there is my full conversation that I had with them. This is a great way to follow up and see whether there was a phone number given by the recruiter or what the follow-up instructions were.

All of your chat transcripts will be in there.

Organization Actions: I’ll be honest with you, you’re probably not going to see anything in there. Some companies have restrictions on what they can do as far as dispositioning a candidate, but you may see something where a company did add a disposition of interested, follow-up needed, interview scheduled, or hired. If they do, that would be under there.

Once again, My Journey never goes away. It will always be there. A year down the road, it’s going to be the same information. We do not remove it, and you will be able to come back in at any point and review your My Journey.

Question: Can you print the chat transcripts? Let’s see. Yes, it looks like you can print it.

Another question: What if they do not reach out? If you reach out to a company and they don’t reach back out to you, all I can say is check back in a little bit. They might have stepped away to use the restroom, they might have stepped away to grab a quick bite. We can’t determine what a company has as far as bandwidth. Sometimes they only have one recruiter running the booth, and they might be busy.

What’s going to happen is if you send them a message, that message is going to remain on their side until they acknowledge it. They will see that message on the recruiter side. It will remain there until they do acknowledge it. Possibly they stepped away for a minute, so just give them some patience and check back in later on, but continue your journey and start to look at some other companies as well.

There is no download for Premier Virtual. The only thing you’ll get from MassHire is a registration link. Then you will click on that registration link and walk through that registration process that we viewed in the beginning of the training.

Any additional questions? Anything that you’d like to see again? Don’t be shy. Let me know if there’s anything that’s not making sense. I have absolutely no problem circling back and going back into anything that we viewed.

**Yesenia:** Glenn, I have a quick question. Some people like to use their cell phones to attend the virtual job fair. Is the cell phone user-friendly for these types of events?

**Glenn:** I will say that we are mobile-friendly. We do not have an app. We are still web-based, so you would basically sign in through the registration link and register through everything we did here, except on the mobile device.

I will say it is much easier on a computer. We also have heard that some iOS users are having some issues with video. That has to relate to a recent update that Apple made. It’s not on the Premier Virtual side, but it’s done something with permissions and granting access to using video.

If you have the availability, I would 100% recommend hopping on a laptop if you can. This is a job fair, so you want to be dressed right, you may be on video calls, first impressions matter, and sometimes on a mobile device, if you’re invited to a video call, it’s shaky and could cut in and out depending on your service.

So we are mobile-friendly, but if you have the availability to use a laptop, I would 100% say yes, use the laptop.

Yes, this presentation was recorded. I will be distributing this to MassHire after the recording is processed. It usually takes about an hour, maybe a little less, but I’ll get that right over to MassHire for distribution.

Please, if you need Premier Virtual, do not hesitate. Right down here in the Help Center, click on the little question mark to take you into the Help Center. You can ask questions. If you click into Attendees and Job Seekers, you can see all of the information we have in there. There are a lot of answers you can get there, and feel free to reach out to support if you need them.

All right, well listen, I’m going to hang on a couple minutes just in case there are more questions. If you don’t have any questions, you can feel free to exit out. Thank you for joining. I hope it helped explain the process and get you a little more comfortable with the platform so you’re ready for event day.

I would definitely maximize those profiles, selling yourself to those recruiters. Even though a profile picture is not mandatory, your experience is important. Really fill that profile out so that you can put your best foot forward when speaking with those recruiters.

Thank you all for joining, and like I said, I’ll stay on just in case there are any more questions. Have a great day.

**Participant:** Hello, sir.

**Glenn:** Hello.

**Participant:** Actually, I have not understood how to load my CV into it.

**Glenn:** I’m sorry, could you say again?

**Participant:** I want to load my CV, my curriculum vitae, into the system. Can you help me out?

**Glenn:** You’re having an issue loading your location?

**Participant:** Yes, sir. I am from Massachusetts.

**Glenn:** All right. When you come in to your location, what city do you live in?

**Participant:** I’m living in Westborough.

**Glenn:** Yep. So you can see Westborough in your dropdown list right there. You just have to type in Westborough and it will appear. Just go ahead and select it, and it will fill into the box.

**Participant:** Hello? Yes? Hello?

**Glenn:** Okay.

**Participant 2:** Yeah, hey Tyrone, how are you? What if I wanted to change—well, I’ve been a professional driver for 30 years. What if I want to change my career? Would I have to go back to school and start over again?

**Glenn:** That would probably be more of a question for MassHire. They do offer career services. I’m just the software side, so we’re the platform you’re using for this job fair. I couldn’t answer that question.

**Participant 2:** Oh, okay. All right, but it was a good question, though.

**Glenn:** It was a good question.

**Participant 2:** You did a good job. If I do have any problems, I’m going to go right back to you and I’m going to hit you up.

**Glenn:** Awesome. Awesome. Please do.

**Yesenia:** Yes, you can always come to our office or call us here at MassHire, and if you’re looking for training or other opportunities, we can try to direct you in the right direction.

**Participant 2:** Okay. Well, every time I call MassHire, I can’t get through the phone. No one calls me back, or it takes like three days to call back, so I get frustrated.

**Yesenia:** There is my email. I entered my email in there. You can send me an email. I’ll enter my email again, and I can connect you with a counselor or someone that can help you.

**Participant 2:** Would it be better for me to go in there in person?

**Yesenia:** I would say my recommendation would be the easiest way: go into JobQuest and sign up for a Career Center Seminar. That way you learn all their services, and after the seminar you will be connected one-on-one with a counselor and you can go from there. That probably will be the easiest way, because if you have not been here in a while, you’re going to be required to attend the Career Center Seminar.

Bill Starr is on the call, so if you have something else, please help.

**Bill:** Okay, yeah. Tyrone, this is Bill. I’m one of the recruiters here at MassHire. Yesenia is correct. Your best bet would be to start with registering, coming to a seminar, and getting connected to a counselor. They’ll talk to you and figure out what the best course of action moving forward would be. They might refer you to me after that. I do help people individually with job searching.

As far as the job fair itself, I don’t know if you have an exact idea of what you’d like to transition to, but when you come to the virtual job fair, the employers there—you don’t have to wait to do the MassHire thing—you can still go to the job fair. Just let the recruiters know: “This is what I’ve been doing for 30 years, but I’m looking for different types of opportunities. What do you have available? What kind of skills or training would I need to be eligible for this type of job?”

That’s information you could share with us when you meet with us as well, so we could better direct you to some of those opportunities if there is a gap in skills or training that’s needed.

**Participant 2:** Right, because I was kind of scared to step out of my tractor-trailer driving and step into something new, because that’s what I know.

**Bill:** Yeah, of course. Like I said, there are lots of other jobs out there. It’s just a matter of finding something you’re interested in and then figuring out what the best plan of action will be to get you into a job like that. We can definitely help with that.

I’m also going to share my email. If you want to reach out to me, I can send you an email too with some links to help get you to the places where you need to register and sign up for that Career Center Seminar that we offer.

**Participant 2:** Okay, thank you, Bill.

**Bill:** Of course.

**Glenn:** I do have a couple other questions in the chat about links being sent out. The links are sent out by MassHire. Once you get that registration link, you’ll follow through the setup wizard like we demonstrated in the beginning of the training.

You’ll also get reminder emails. You’re going to get a reminder email 24 hours before the event and then another one when the event goes live, and in those emails there will be a link to get back into the platform as well.

I do recommend bookmarking it, though, so that way it’s right up there at the top of your browser.

I apologize if I missed that question, and I think that’s it. I think we’ve got all the questions answered.

I do have an 11 o’clock meeting, so I do have to run anyway. I appreciate everybody joining. I wish you the best of luck in finding a new position out there.

MassHire and Premier Virtual have been partners for, I think, four or five years now. They are amazing, so any support that you need from them, I’m sure they can help you.

Once again, on the Premier Virtual side, if you need us, just click into that Help Center. You have a wonderful day.

**Participant:** Thank you.

**Glenn:** You’re very welcome. Thank you.

**Participant:** Bill, you have a wonderful day too.

**Bill:** You too. Thank you. Good luck, guys.

**Speaker 1:** All right. Bye-bye.
