Pro Spot International Hosts Collision Repair Education Foundation Career Event

The career fair hosted over 300 local students who had the opportunity to talk with industry professionals about their future career goals, learn about positions, pass out resumes and tour the Pro Spot manufacturing facility.

Pro Spot International announced that it hosted the Southern California Collision Career Fair from 8:30 a.m. to 2 p.m. on Thursday, March 9 at Pro Spot’s headquarters and manufacturing facility in Carlsbad, Calif.

The career fair, presented by the Collision Repair Education Foundation, hosted over 300 local students who had the opportunity to talk with industry professionals about their future career goals, learn about positions, pass out resumes and tour the Pro Spot manufacturing facility. Zero to 60 Designs’ Kenny Pfitzer also attended with two cars he built for the SEMA Show, talking to students about his path, the importance of learning skills and what an opportunity these companies are providing for them.

“Starting a career is hard,” said Ashley Olsson, communications, Pro Spot International. “Often, those trying to get into an industry are faced with the issue that every job is requesting ‘experience’ but are never given the opportunity to earn it. Our industry is providing that training and experience for students, and a career fair like this is a great way to get a head start.”
