Pasco, WA — Columbia Basin College says the job market is looking up.

Today students seeking some of those job opportunities put their best foot forward.

With nearly 100 employers in the audience, job seekers presented their skills and qualifications in a 60-second commercial.

Daphne Lightfoot at the college employment office says past Live Resumes have turned into real jobs.

“Often times, they’re hired or set up with an interview right on the spot.”

Lightfoot says technology and health related fields continue to show strong job growth.

Employers attending today’s career expo included, Energy Northwest, and several hotels and hospitals throughout Washington and Oregon.
