MIAMI, Oct. 30, 2019 – Miami Dade College’s (MDC) School of Justice, Public Safety and Law Studies will host a career fair on Thursday, Nov. 14, at 9 a.m., at North Campus with more than 20 municipal, state and federal agencies, which are actively seeking qualified candidates for employment. The event is free and open to the public.
The looming shortage of police officers at local agencies is well documented. This is not only a concern for local organizations, but also for State and Federal agencies. MDC’s School of Justice has proactively worked to address this issue opening its doors to agencies hiring police candidates and holding several recruiting events and job fairs. Agency job postings are distributed via the School of Justice’ social media pages and bulletin boards.
