Additionally, Cactus Club Cafe, The Keg Steakhouse and Bar, and Starbucks will be conducting interviews at each of their respective events, meaning that hires could be made on the spot.

A wide variety of positions will be available, including servers, hosts, sous chefs, line and prep cooks, dishwashers, and baristas.

In order to attend Career Zone Virtual Hiring Week, attendees must register in advance for free online. They will also be able to select which specific employer events they attend, whether it’s one or all.
