OCALA, FLA. (Sept. 30, 2015) – CareerSource Citrus Levy Marion will hold three job fairs this month on the same day, each featuring employers hiring in industries key to the three-county area.

The “Manufacturing and More” job fairs take place October 15, with a different event planned for each county:

• Marion County’s job fair takes place from 9 a.m. to noon at the College of Central Florida Ewers Century Center, 3001 SW College Road, in Ocala.
• Citrus County’s event is set for 1-4 p.m. at CF’s Citrus Campus, 3800 S. Lecanto Hwy, in Lecanto.
• Levy County’s job fair will be from 1-4 p.m. at the Williston Women’s Club, 1049 NE Sixth Blvd., (Highway 121 North), in Williston.

During the month of October, which is National Manufacturing Month, 23 of Florida’s 24 workforce development areas plan to hold similar hiring events. CareerSource CLM is one of only two workforce areas holding three job fairs as part of the statewide initiative.

In addition to manufacturing, employers in healthcare, technology and transportation/logistics industries are also slated to participate in the local job fairs.

“These are the target industries for our area,” said Rusty Skinner, CareerSource Citrus Levy Marion’s CEO. “We call this ‘Manufacturing and More’ because, while a focus is on manufacturing during October, we recognize that healthcare, technology and transportation industries are also primary drivers of our local economies.”

There is no charge to attend but job seekers must sign up online and professional dress is required. Job fair preparation tips and strategies are also available on the website.

The job fairs are held in partnership with the Mid-Florida Regional Manufacturers Association, College of Central Florida, and CF’s XCEL-IT program.
