The annual Orange County spring job fair will be held at The Galleria at Crystal Run in the Town of Wallkill on Wednesday, May 17th from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m., Orange County Executive Steven M. Neuhaus and Employment and Training Administration Director Steve Knob announced.
“The County is committed to helping residents find meaningful employment and career advancement,” Neuhaus said. “Our annual job fair is a popular event, providing job seekers with a unique opportunity to speak with respected companies and firms that are hiring. We are excited to help them make that connection and appreciate the continued support from the employers participating in our job fair.”
Approximately 60 employers and recruiters from Orange, Dutchess, Sullivan and Westchester counties will be at the Galleria to speak with potential job candidates, officials said.
