Section 3: Supplemental (Non-Vacancy Specific) Recruitment Activities Undertaken by KXO and KXO-FM.
Imperial Valley College 2019 Career Fair/ College and University Day was held on Thursday, September 26th, 2019 from 9:00 am ‘til 12:00 pm inside and outside the college gym. Over 50 employers, 25 colleges and universities participated. Over 2000 college students, high school seniors, and community members attended the event.
Gene Brister, President and General Manager of KXO, set up a table display in the gym. The booth featured descriptions of all job possibilities at the stations, requirements and responsibilities. He discussed all job descriptions with all interested parties. He explained we had no job openings at the present time, but individuals were welcome to drop off resumes at our booth or drop by our studios and fill out a job application, resume and place it on file. Traffic was strong at our booth. We had just over 200 people visit with us. The most popular part of our display was a looped video that showed the many special events we are involved in and our stations rich Imperial Valley history.
KXO and KXO-FM co-sponsored the entire Imperial Valley College 2019 Career Fair/College and University Day event.
With rare exception, other career fairs are held in Imperial County each year in the spring time. We were looking forward to getting invitations to several this spring and then the Corona Virus Pandemic hit here in the early part of March. To say the least, not one career day of any kind has been held or scheduled to date and nothing is on the horizon. We are under orders to “Shelter In Place,” wear a mask, and practice social distancing if you have to go out.
On Friday, May 17th, 2019 KXO President and General Manager, Gene Brister, was a participant in the Brawley Union High School District, “Wildcats Reaching Higher Career Fair” hosted by the Board of Trustees, Administrators, Counselors, Staff and Students. The event was held on the high school campus beginning 7:30 a.m. and concluding at 11:45 a.m. We had over 125 students interact with us talking about radio broadcasting career opportunities. We explained we had no job openings at the present time, but encouraged the students to fill out an application and leave a resume at our booth or drop by our studios and fill out a job application and leave a resume.
