Despite the layoffs and furloughs that the pandemic has caused, many companies throughout northeast Minnesota are looking for candidates to fill open positions. Hiring during this time can be even more challenging and the Northeast Minnesota Office of Job Training (NEMOJT) is offering an innovative way for employers and job seekers to connect.
This event will be held on October 27, 28, and 29 from 10:00 a.m. to 1:00 p.m. each day. Employers won’t have to get up early, fight traffic, and stand in a crowded hall to speak to job seekers. Instead, they will be able to connect with job seekers by phone, tablet, or computer, and speak directly with recruiters. Job seekers can apply to open positions and research companies all in one location.
The Northeast Minnesota Office of Job Training helps businesses with their employment and training needs every year. Local, professional career counselors work with people just starting out in the labor force to seasoned professionals who may be facing change in their chosen field and need a new start. The Northeast Minnesota Office of Job Training provides a wide range of free services to businesses, including wage reimbursement for hiring eligible individuals, coordination of screening, hiring, and testing applicants, and advancing the skills of your existing workforce.
