Teen Job Fair
The city of Pleasanton is again partnering with the cities of San Ramon and Dublin, the town of Danville and the Dublin-San Ramon Women’s Club to host their annual free Tri-Valley Teen Job and Career Fair on March 5.
“Teens aged 14-19 will have the opportunity to meet with local employers, pick up applications, and apply for jobs,” organizers said. “The event will feature mock interviews, career workshops and related information. Lunch will be provided. Participants are encouraged to bring copies of their resumes and dress professionally.”
Employers interested in participating must register by Feb. 23. No signups required for student job seekers.
The event is scheduled to run from 12-3 p.m. March 5 at the Dublin Senior Center at 7600 Amador Valley Blvd.
Apply for grand jury
Recruitment is underway for openings on the upcoming 2022-23 Alameda County civil grand jury, a citizen watchdog group that investigates public agencies and community entities throughout the county.
“The Civil Grand Jury depends on, and encourages, the participation of a diverse group of citizens who will bring perspectives and experiences from both their local community and their own personal backgrounds,” organizers said.
The application window, which opened last month, runs through April 15.
Alameda County Superior Court officials will review the applications and select 30 finalists, from whom the final panel of 19 jurors will be picked via random draw. To apply or learn more about the service requirements, visit grandjury.acgov.org.

The upcoming session, set to run from 10 a.m. to noon on Saturday (Feb. 12) at the park at 4701 Muirwood Drive, follows two similar events elsewhere in the city last weekend.
