Career expo set for June 1 at admin building

Longview ISD is hosting another Recruitment Expo from 4 to 6 p.m. June 1 at the Education Support Center, 1301 E. Young St.

Human Resources director Loretta Thompson Martin said last month's job fair had such high turnout, the district decided to provide an additional event for job-seekers.

The city's second-largest employer, Longview ISD has posted a steady increase in enrollment over the last few years and is looking to fill approximately 20 positions.

Thompson-Martin said the district is seeking certified and highly-qualified teachers in all subjects, including critical need areas like Math, Science, Spanish and Bilingual Education, as well as Social Studies, Reading, and Language Arts.

'Interested applicants are invited to share their resume with our various campus principals, with some principals possibly conducting interviews, checking references and offering jobs right on the spot,' she said. 'We are hiring for elementary and secondary teachers, and professional positions across the district.'

Thompson-Martin invited job seekers to fill out an application online at lisd.org and bring the appropriate materials to the career expo.

'We ask that they have copies of their resume, transcripts, teaching certificates, and three letters of recommendation,' she said.
