Hundreds Attend Commissioner Sandy Murman’s South County Job Fair
Nearly 250 people attended a South County Job Fair this past Friday, September 28th, at the SouthShore Regional Service Center in Ruskin.
The event, hosted by Hillsborough County Commissioner Sandy Murman, in association with the Tampa Bay Workforce Alliance and Hillsborough County, drew more than 30 employers and vendors, some of them interviewing potential employees there, and others providing links to jobs online.
In a post-job fair survey taken by TBWA which asked for feedback on the event, nearly 85% of the 23 employers who completed it rated the South County Job Fair as at least excellent or outstanding.
“With the challenges that we are all facing with the downturn in the economy, the most important thing that we can do in county government is to help our unemployed or under-employed citizens to find jobs,” said Commissioner Murman. “I think we accomplished that with this job fair. It’s a great start,” she added.
