as graduation nears, high school seniors are looking forward to what comes next.

For many, it's the workforce.

Among the nearly 4,000 job seekers at last month's Spring Job Fair at the Las Vegas Convention Center, there were about 200 CCSD students.

They arrived by bus with resumes in hand in search of opportunity.

(Kimberly Adams) We are here at the job fair at the Convention Center.

We brought students, our senior class students, to come and get real world experience and find a job.

(Adan Castillo) I hope to find something that I want to do as a career.

I don't know what I want to do after high school, so I'm trying to find something that will pique my interest, keep me engaged, and something that I'll like doing in the future.

-We had lessons on putting together cover letters and resumes.

We also had a whole session of panel interviews where people from the community came to our school and interviewed our seniors so they would have the right look, be able to really tell our employees what we had to offer.

(Julianna Hamilton) I wanted to meet with employers from Allegiant Stadium because they have bigger opportunities for-- I'm a cheerleader.

So they have bigger opportunities to be around that type of environment.

(Xavier Martinez) I'm looking for some opportunities in some trades, maybe a little bit of electrical, carpentry, trying to find some trade jobs or maybe even a job I could do right now.

I'm also looking for future careers after high school, something I could look forward to after that.

(Monica Carol) What's great is there's a number of employers here, and we're trying to get the qualified candidates for the positions that we have opened.

We're looking for those students to be able to give them opportunities.

We have temp positions open so we can give them their experience that they need, where they can start that experience and start putting it on their resumes.

(Farrah Johnson) I had a goal to get at least five official jobs or at least like, interviews, at least.

I plan on going to a trade school.

So hopefully when I get a job here, I can go over and keep that job until I eventually get a better job.

-More than 20 students were offered jobs at the Spring Job Fair.

Well done!

Congratulations.
