Since September, the RochesterWorks! Career Center on Goodman Street has been hosting “Recruiting ‘Round Rochester” each Monday morning. The response was so great that another day has been added!
Businesses can now recruit on-site on Thursdays, from 2:00 PM – 4:00 PM. In the future, this service will be offered at the Waring Road Career Center. More information on that will be available soon.
Recruiting ‘Round Rochester gives businesses an opportunity to market their job opportunities to candidates in a job fair setting. Since its inception, more than 650 job seekers were seen by more than 24 companies including Catholic Family Services, Center for Disability Rights, Gleason Works, Kelly Services, Newtex, Paychex, RBA Staffing Services, Sutherland Global Services, and The Employment Store.
