Hi,

I was wondering if anyone know of companies that hire people just for specific events or meetings, such as working a registration table for them. (I am not looking for banquet service). I would appreciate any thoughts on this. I live in Wisconsin, so if anyone know of any specific companies that do this in the Milwaukee area, that would be great.

Thanks!

Hi, muthcat!

What sort of education, job experience and training have you already had, please?

Thanks!

Hi Clough,

My background is in human resources, but I have been out of the work force for awhile. I went back to school last year and got my certificate in meeting and event planning, and am trying to find a company that would give me experience and build up my confidence. Any suggestions?

Hi again, muthcat!

What I would suggest doing, is going to a local job service or workforce development office, where a person can look for jobs. Usually, they'll have a lot more listings for jobs that might not be listed in the local newspapers.

Here are links to a couple of sites in Wisconsin that might be helpful to you. I hope that they are!

Wisconsin Department of Workforce Development (http://www.dwd.state.wi.us/)

Equal Rights Division (http://www.dwd.state.wi.us/er/)

Thanks!
