BERC
seeking employers for Spring Job Fair
Westminster, MD – March 26, 2018 - The Carroll County Business/Employment Resource Center
(BERC) is hosting a Spring Job Fair on Thursday, May 3, 2018 from 9:00 am –
1:00 pm at 224 North Center Street. “The Carroll County unemployment rate has
been falling so it may be more challenging for businesses to find workers for seasonal
work and permanent positions. We are
offering this no-cost job fair as our way of helping the local business
community; hundreds of job seekers typically attend this annual event and many
great job matches are made.” said BERC Manager Denise Rickell.
BERC is a
local employment and training resource that provides complimentary recruitment,
retraining, and retention programs. BERC helps businesses find the most
qualified employees by posting jobs at the center and on the Maryland Workforce
Exchange, assessing candidates using the nationally recognized program – IBM
Assess, offering skills training, and hosting on-site job fairs. Job seekers also
receive job search assistance and training information at BERC.
At the Spring
Job Fair, businesses are provided with a recruitment table and assistance in
managing applicant flow. BERC personnel will
be on hand to assist job seekers. Employers
are asked to provide information in advance about the types and number of
positions available. Veteran job candidates will also be in attendance.
Businesses
that are actively recruiting to fill open positions are encouraged to contact Scott
Singleton at 410-386-2521 to reserve a spot as space is limited.
