Oswego County Workforce New York (OCWNY) and the Workforce Crisis & Solutions Committee of the Oswego County Community Services Board are hosting a “Make a Change” hiring event which will bring local employers and job applicants together with a variety of careers.
It will run from 2 to 6 p.m. on Tuesday, April 19 at the Oswego County Workforce New York Career Center at 200 N. Second St. in Fulton.
“The Community Services Board works with the County’s Division of Mental Hygiene and our local providers to ensure planning and oversight of local Mental Hygiene Services,” said Nicole Kolmsee, director of Community Services for Oswego County. “The committee was established in response to the high number of vacant job positions in our service community. Tasked with identifying contributing factors and possible solutions, the committee proposed a joint recruitment effort to promote opportunities and help stabilize our provider workforce.”
Oswego County Director of Employment and Training Rachel Pierce added, “We are hoping to bring together job seekers and businesses to introduce local talent and employment opportunities. Our economy is struggling to rebound from the upheaval of the pandemic. Helping people find employment and helping businesses find quality candidates also helps our communities better their economic futures.”
