Central office administrators will also be present to discuss employment opportunities, including technology professionals, cafeteria staff, custodians, bus drivers, security staff, and substitute teachers as well as positions in a variety of skilled trades.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe Career Expo is your opportunity to network with representatives from across all departments and schools,\u201d said Anne Glenn-Zeljeznjak, coordinator of recruitment and retention for VBCPS.<\/p>\n<p>Although there are job opportunities across all school levels and departments, Glenn-Zeljeznjak noted several high-need areas:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Special education teachers<\/li>\n<li>Information technology professionals<\/li>\n<li>World languages teachers<\/li>\n<li>Spanish immersion teachers<\/li>\n<li>Maintenance technicians<\/li>\n<li>Math teachers<\/li>\n<li>Speech language pathologists<\/li>\n<li>Bus drivers<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Glenn-Zeljeznjak encourages Career Expo attendees to bring multiple copies of their resume or other pertinent documents that support their qualification for the particular job they are seeking.
