On Friday the Fulton County Office of Workforce Development will hold a tweet chat from noon to 1 p.m. to help teens and adults find jobs. Participants can tweet questions about preparing a resume, preparing for interviews, getting training and skills upgrades, dressing for success and other issues.

Jason Lane, a youth jobs specialist, will answer questions and he expects to be joined in the chat by a client who recently landed a job. To participate, tweet questions to @FultonInfo and use the hash tag #FultonJobFair.
