The thirteenth annual Professional Career Reception is scheduled on Wednesday, November 29, 4:00-6:00 p.m., at the DoubleTree by Hilton, 1521W. Pinhook. The event is hosted by Acadiana Workforce Solutions, Lafayette Economic Development Authority, Louisiana Workforce Commission, One Acadiana, and the University of Louisiana at Lafayette Department of Career Services.

Job seekers will be able to meet with hiring managers from a variety of companies that are currently hiring for openings in management, sales, finance, technology, software development, customer service, media, manufacturing and more. Attendees are encouraged to bring copies of their resumes and to dress professionally.
