LANSING — The Michigan Department of Transportation has announced the return of its Career Fest on July 22-23, offering the public another opportunity to explore a wide range of transportation careers and connect directly with professionals working across the department. In-person and virtual sessions will be available. 

Now in its second year, Career Fest has grown significantly. MDOT has partnered with Lansing Community College (LCC) West Campus to accommodate high demand and ensure participants have ample space to explore all the opportunities available. 

“The response to last year’s Career Fest made it clear people are eager to learn about careers at MDOT,” said State Transportation Director Bradley C. Wieferich. “Thanks to our partnership with LCC, we’ve expanded the event to welcome even more attendees and continue building a strong pipeline of transportation talent.” 

With more than 100 career classifications represented, attendees will meet MDOT staff, explore career paths and learn about open positions and qualifications.
