More than 50 local employers and five local colleges will be in the Lake Highlands Freshman Center gym from 11 a.m. to 1:30 p.m. May 4 ready to interview students and offer positions. The Teen Job Fair for kids 16 years old and older will be hosted by the Lake Highlands and LH North Public Improvement Districts (PIDs), Richardson ISD and the Dallas Police Department’s Northeast Division.

In addition to earning a paycheck, students who work are less likely to get into trouble over the summer and more likely to earn job skills and confidence. Students don’t need to pre-register or pay to attend, but they should bring their resume and dress for success.
