Nashville, TN – Job seekers in the Nashville area will have the opportunity to attend the Be The Light Tour, an outdoor career fair aimed at providing free resources to help them land their next job. The tour, produced by Insight Global, a staffing company that recruits in the sales, healthcare, and tech fields, will be held on Saturday, May 6, 2023, from 9 AM to 4 PM CST at the Nashville State Community College’s White Bridge Campus back parking lot located at 120 White Bridge Rd.
The Be The Light Tour, which kicked off in Atlanta last November and in Houston on February 18, has already helped hundreds of job seekers realize their potential and feel confident in landing their next job. Removing typical barriers for people, the tour provides on-site childcare services, food, services such as resume writing, and free professional headshots. The career center is set up in places near public transportation, making it easily accessible to job seekers.
The organizers of the event are especially focused on helping specific populations, including AAPI, BIPOC, first-generation, individuals with disabilities, LGBTQIA, previously incarcerated, single-income families, vets, and more. The Be The Light Tour aims to break down barriers to employment and create a more inclusive workforce.
“We fundamentally believe in our purpose to Be The Light to those around us,” said Bree Davis, Social Impact Program Manager for Insight Global. “Our recent survey shows that people want to explore new opportunities, whether it be to create a better life or simply keep up with increases in the cost of living. That’s why we’re hosting this tour – to empower and equip job seekers with the confidence and skills they need to create a brighter future.”
The event is expected to draw a large crowd of job seekers from across the Nashville area. Job seekers interested in attending are encouraged to register for the event in advance. For more information about the event and to register, visit the Be The Light Tour website.
