What is Talent Jam: Hickory Metro?
Talent Jam is the perfect combo of a job fair, a connection event and speed professional matchmaking.  It's a modern take on the classic job fair where both companies and local job seekers can present one-minute pitches of their professional needs or talents followed by casual networking, all while enjoying great local food and drink.  This event is presented by your Catawba County Chamber and the Catawba County EDC.
 
Do I have to “pitch” to attend?
Absolutely not!  Attendance is free – we hope you will make plans to stop in for a bit, make casual connections and collect a few business cards from local hiring managers.    

If I want to play a leading role, how do I reserve a pitch slot?

This will still be a great opportunity to have the undivided attention of over 60 local employers to pitch what YOU have to offer!  This is your moment to show exactly why YOU are exactly what they need…you’ve got skills – pitch them!  Sign up and pitch your talent for $20 (limited to first 20 spots) – we can provide you additional direction and coaching on the art of the pitch.   Let us know and we can help you.
 
I know others looking for a great career in the Hickory Metro – can I invite them to join me?
Please do! Please forward this info on to friends, soon-to-grad high school or college students, veterans, the underemployed, or someone looking for their next step up. 
 
What type of jobs have been featured through Talent Jam?
Account Managers, Engineers, Inside and Outside Sales Representatives, Administrative Assistants, LPNs/RNs/CNAs, Team Leaders, Trainers, District & Regional Managers….& more!
