Lane Community College hosts free job fair with on-site interviews
Job seekers can meet Lane County employers, bring resumes, and use on-site interview rooms at Lane Community College's free May 21 fair in Eugene.
Lane Community College is opening its main Eugene campus to current students, alumni and community members for a free hiring event that is built for people who want more than a flyer and a handshake. The annual job fair will run from 1 p.m. to 4 p.m. Thursday, May 21, on the second floor of the Center Building, with on-site interview rooms available for employers ready to move candidates forward.
The college says local and regional employers will be recruiting for part-time, full-time and seasonal jobs across multiple industries, making the fair useful for students seeking a first job, residents looking for summer work and anyone trying to pivot into a new field. Admission is free and no registration is required, which lowers the barrier for people who may be job hunting on short notice.
Lane is steering attendees toward practical preparation before they walk in. The college says job seekers should bring several copies of a resume and dress professionally, two basics that can make the difference when an employer is meeting a long line of candidates in a short window. For people who have been out of the hiring process for a while, the Lane Community College Tutoring Center is offering help with resume writing, cover letters and interview preparation.
That support extends beyond the fair itself. Lane says tutoring is free and available in more than 50 subjects, both in person and online, a reminder that the college treats career readiness as part of a larger academic support system. Its community page also notes that the Lane Community College Alumni Network receives invitations to events such as the annual job fair, linking past students to the campus workforce pipeline.
The fair arrives as many Lane County residents are looking for work that can start quickly or lead to something more permanent. Lane’s career resources point people to Oregon Employment Department labor-market information for Lane County, underscoring how the college is connecting the fair to broader hiring trends in the region. A similar Lane Community College job fair was held May 15, 2025, also from 1 p.m. to 4 p.m., showing that the spring event has become a regular stop for both employers and job seekers.
For anyone trying to leave campus with a lead, the details matter: go to the Center Building, bring resumes, dress for an interview and be ready to speak with employers who may be hiring on the spot.
