Where Are
The Job Seekers? Recruiters Struggle To Hire At Local Job Fair Event
JobFairGiant.com held the Sterling Heights Job
Fair yesterday Thursday, November 21 with over 500 immediate job opportunities
available for experienced and entry-level candidates. The event was held at the
Best Western Hotel, with over 55-employers onsite the candidate turnout was a
great disappointment. Last month at the Southfield Job Fair candidate
attendance was 1500 and yesterday the job seeker attendance was 750. Many recruiters
complain that fewer candidates are applying for positions online and now job
fair attendance is low, recruiters are wondering where the job seekers are. –
said CJ Eason, Community Outreach Director at JobFairGiant.com
Gratefully, the Sterling Heights Job Fair was not
unproductive for all 55 employers many expressed that quality over quantity was
satisfactory in their search for candidates. United Lawnscape recruiters interviewed
twenty candidates for their Snow Removal positions paying $ 14.00 to $23.00
hourly with expectation of hiring seventy-five candidates for the winter season,
Endeavor Air was unsuccessful in interviewing for their Airline Pilot and
A&P Mechanic positions. Michigan based manufacturer Sodecia struggled to find
production, machine repair, toolmakers and electrician candidates and national
retailer La-Z-Boy was mildly successful in their recruitment efforts to hire
buyers, program managers, business analyst and interior design assistants.
Many of the participating companies still need to
hire candidates for positions in engineering, manufacturing, sales, finance,
customer service, truck driving, management, retail, information technology, machining
and more. We encourage candidates that miss the job fair yesterday to submit
their resume via email to November@jobfairgiant.com for immediate
consideration. – said CJ Eason

Year, New Job Career Fair happening on Thursday, December 19th at
the Embassy Suites Hotel in Livonia from 9:00am to 3:00pm. Additional details
