PITTSBURG, KS.--- The "Crawford County Career Opportunities Day" event is sponsored by the Pittsburg Area Business Alliance. It's designed to highlight both post-secondary and vocational opportunities available to high school graduates. 

About 35 vendors set up booths with interactive activities and information to help students make decisions about their future.

"Not every student leaving high school is interested in going into education right off the bat. Some of them want to head into the workforce and so this gives those students the chance to check out the businesses in the area and see what kind of jobs they have available to them," said Anna Gudde, Event Organizer.

Students also had the chance to attend a seminar providing interview tips and ways to make your resume more attractive to employers.
