During the event, potential candidates will have the chance to speak one-on-one with representatives from the county’s various departments including public works, corrections and mass transit, and will also be able to apply for jobs in-person at the career fair.

“We invite anyone looking to start a career to come out and see what’s available,” said Human Resources Director Crystal Dadura. “We’ve recently raised our salaries in several positions including corrections – making us one of the highest paid in northwest Florida – fire rescue and EMS. We’re also proud to offer an incredible benefits package with medical, dental and vision coverage; flexible spending accounts (FSA) and health savings accounts (HSA); an employee assistance program; a free employee health clinic; and free use of our county gyms.
