Shirley Chisholm once said, “if you don’t get a seat at the table, bring a chair.”
BLAXPO is hoping to connect BIPOC individuals to equitable and diverse opportunities with a special job fair this fall.
The organization aims to reduce the unemployment gap by highlighting BIPOC talent in the Canadian market, making it easier for people to network and apply for jobs.
This will be the second job fair of its kind. This year’s event will be held online and in person on October 22 at the Toronto Reference Library, located at 789 Yonge Street. It will kick off at 10 am and run until 5 pm.
