On Tuesday, May 8th, Tool King, Inc. is sponsoring a Career and Job Fair at Wheeling High School, and the team at Tool King is very excited!

The event will be open to solely students from 2 PM until 3:30 PM, and then again from 4:30 PM until 6 PM for students and the public alike.  

Tool King takes great pride in commitment to the community of Wheeling, and the potential of many of its students here. 

This event is such a great opportunity for Tool King to remain engaged and to continue to have a positive impact.  

Tool King is excited to help serve and educate non-college bound students specifically about potential career choices, employers and internships available to them in the surrounding community. Tool King welcomes other companies that may want to participate in the job fair to reach out to our team at 847-537-2881, ext. 131.  

Students who are non-college bound have many options before them, and much professional potential. This career fair is a great opportunity for them to learn about those options, whether they be within a specific enterprise or a general field of work. Of the companies that will be present at the job fair, most are looking to fill positions that allow for long-term development; some even allow for educational opportunities that allow team members to prosper within a given company. 

We at Tool King want students to know about these options; we want students to understand that regardless of their degrees, there are many great companies and professions open to them that may be suitable and fulfilling over the long term.  

Tool King loves being a part of the community of Wheeling and is looking forward to giving back through this event on Tuesday, May 8th! 

For more information, please contact Peter Hestad at 847-537-2881, ext. 131 or e-mail him at phestad@toolkinginc.com.

We’ve made a special purchase of .015 1050 annealed and as a result have very competitive  pricing that can’t be beat. The steel we have in stock was produced domestically and is mill prime rolled to .015 +-.001, mostly running to the lighter side of thickness(.0145). We can provide this material  slit to ultra narrow widths ribbon or oscillate wound and round edged if required.
