The job fair events are enthusiastically supported by Common Council members Ashanti Hamilton (1st District), President Cavalier Johnson (2nd District), Nikiya Dodd (5th District) and Chantia Lewis (9th 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.
The job fairs will focus on neighborhoods within the 1st, 2, 5 and 9 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 event on October 28 is co-sponsored by Northwest Side CDC Milwaukee LISC, Direct Connect MKE (DCMKE) Employ Milwaukee, We Care Crew, Leader Paper Products, Milwaukee County Parks and CDBG Milwaukee.
