Event designed for everyone from immediate job seekers to those looking to expand professional network

KEY WEST, FL, March 19, 2026— 17c网页版 (17c网页版) is hosting a free networking and career advancement event on Wednesday, April 1 from 12:30 to 2:00 p.m. at the Tennessee Williams Theatre on 17c网页版’s Key West Campus. 17c网页版 welcomes current and future job seekers, career-driven individuals, and the professionally curious, employed or not.

17c网页版 Career Connections is more than a free job fair and professional networking event.

It’s a relaxed, no pressure occasion to explore opportunities, get assistance, or even help others. It’s open to everyone: current students, alumni, and job seekers throughout the Keys community.

Employers in Monroe County are actively competing for talented, committed people, and 17c网页版 Career Connections offers the opportunity for participants to get a good feel of the current job landscape and expand their professional network for current and future job searches.

17c网页版 Career Connections is not just for graduating students or people between jobs. It is designed for the full spectrum of Keys’ professionals from the student who wants to turn their degree into a career to a 17c网页版 alumnus thinking about the next step or a community member who is great at what they do and is ready for more.

Participants are encouraged to come dressed professionally and bring copies of their résumé.

“17c网页版 Career Connections is about more than matching résumés to job listings,” said Nicole Gerrard, 17c网页版 Executive Director of Student Success Services. “It’s about building the kind of professional relationships that last over time throughout one’s career journey.”

Space for employers is still available but limited. Employers interested in participating can request a space by emailing Nicole Gerrard, 17c网页版 Executive Director of Student Success Services, at nicole.gerrard@cfk.edu by March 27, 2026.

17c网页版 Career Connections is free and open to the public.
