In-Demand Jobs Week - May 6-10, 2024
The seventh annual In-Demand Jobs Week will take place May 6 to May 10, the first full work week of May. In-Demand Jobs Week is designed to promote Ohio’s most in-demand and fastest-growing industries through statewide hiring, education, and training events.
In Ohio, we make the things Americans need to live and thrive. This year’s In-Demand Jobs Week theme is “Ohio, the Heart of Opportunity,” highlighting the various opportunities available now and in the future, right here in the Buckeye State. From internships to apprenticeships, and from careers in manufacturing to healthcare, there is opportunity for you in Ohio.
What kind of events can I host for In-Demand Jobs Week?
There are several different events that schools, businesses, and community organizations can host during In-Demand Jobs Week. Here are just a few examples:
-
Career Fairs & Hiring Events: Host a recruiting event with local businesses in the area at a school or community space.
