Saturday was National Manufacturing Day – a day meant to inspire the next generation of manufacturers and educate the public on the growing skill shortage despite the high volume of job openings in the manufacturing sector.
In that spirit, the Hamilton County Workforce Recovery Task Force, in cooperation with the Hamilton County Workforce Innovation Network (HCWIN), announces a Virtual Career Fair focused on manufacturing and engineering positions in Hamilton County. The fair is scheduled to take place from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m. on Thursday, Nov. 5.

“The need for qualified advanced manufacturing and engineering skilled workers was already high before the pandemic and continues to be an area of growth,” HCWIN Executive Director Robert Kneberg. “Many Hamilton County employers have high-wage, high-skill, and in-demand positions available. This career fair is designed to connect them with employees looking to be a part of the manufacturing sector in Hamilton County.”
The free Virtual Career Fair will provide one-on-one chat or video conversations with company representatives. Companies who are interested in participating can contact Robert Kneberg at rkneberg@hcwin.org or (317) 914 -0171.
