Free job fair in Bethpage

The Town of Oyster Bay, The Workforce Partnership and New York State Department of Labor are hosting a free job fair in Bethpage.

The job fair is scheduled for 10:30 a.m. to 2 p.m. on Thursday, March 30 at the town’s Ice Skating Center at 1001 Stewart Ave.

Employers from across Long Island will be seeking candidates for various positions. Some of these include management, licensed professional, hospitality, banking, staffing and technical.

The town serves as administrator of The Workforce Partnership, a consortium of local governments funded by the Federal Workforce Innovation and Opportunity Act that provides free valuable resources to both employers and job seekers at Career Centers in Hicksville and Massapequa. These centers help train employees to meet the needs of the private sector, connecting qualified job seekers with employers, and by assisting applicants in accessing job opportunities.

The Career Centers offer resource rooms, equipped with computer workstations and internet access. They offer residents access to job listings, resource materials, photocopiers, fax machines and telephones, providing employability and computer workshops, as well as career counselors who will guide residents through their job search.
