Job fairs are a wonderful opportunity for job seekers to explore career opportunities and for employers to meet and hire qualified workers, said State Labor Commissioner James J. McGowan. Hosting job fairs is just one way the Department of Labor can help businesses find workers and help people find jobs. Job seekers are invited to bring their resumes and speak to local employers about hundreds of available career opportunities. Employers will be recruiting for positions such as nurse, dietician, home health aide, resident counselor, clerical worker, retail sales clerk, cashier, factory worker, inventory specialist, financial consultant, and stone cutter. Employers representing various industries including banking and finance, retail, manufacturing, health care, travel and tourism, human services and government will be represented.
