More than 200 Maxwell Automotive students attended and spoke with vendors to learn the ins and outs of the collision repair and mechanical industries and had the opportunity to find local jobs in their area. Culinary students joined the events by providing lunches under the instruction of Belinda Devasto. Maxwell automotive instructor, Max Chavez, says that every participating company looks forward to this yearly event, and they say it&#8217;s the best recruiting event they participate in.<\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoNormal\">\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0\u201cThe Maxwell Automotive career fair is the largest gathering of service managers and recruiters from more than 25 dealerships and shops in the Gwinnett area,\u201d adds Chavez. \u201cThis event has kept us at the top of the list for most industry placement for a high school automotive program in the state. Students get to interact with companies from all around Gwinnett county and national agencies like ASE and I-CAR. This event is a direct pipeline to the automotive industry for students to start careers, not just jobs.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoNormal\">\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0Maxwell\u2019s collision repair and mechanical programs use the ASE standards and I-CAR curriculum to teach the students.
