North side and south side events take place this Thursday (August 19th 2021) from noon to 4 p.m.
The City of Milwaukee Office of Workforce Development will be holding north side and south side Drive-Thru Job Fairs on Thursday, August 19th 2021 for Milwaukee job seekers looking for immediate employment opportunities.
The job fair events are enthusiastically supported by Common Council members Milele A. Coggs (6th District), Khalif J. Rainey (7th District), Chantia Lewis (9th District), José G. Pérez (12th District), Marina Dimitrijevic (14th District) and Russell W. Stamper, II (15th District) as a creative way to bring immediate job opportunities to residents (where they live), and in a manner that is safe during the coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic recovery.
The job fairs will focus on neighborhoods within the 6th, 7th, 9th, 12th, 14th, and 15th Aldermanic Districts, all of which have been hit hard by COVID-19. All attendees will receive a no-contact bag packed with information on employment assistance programs and employers hiring right now, and the events will feature employers from manufacturing, office, healthcare, retail, transportation/logistics and much more.
The Drive Thru Job Fair events on August 19th are co-sponsored by Milwaukee Common Council, Direct Connect Milwaukee, Northwest Side CDC, State Department of Workforce Development, Job Center of Wisconsin, Employ Milwaukee, Social Development Commission, The Milwaukee Urban League, Milwaukee Public Schools, UMOS, Inc. and the City of Milwaukee.
