Southwest Florida Region Job-A-Thon
1,500 Immediate Job Openings!
August 24th, 2021 from 8 A.M. – 8 P.M.
As students are returning to school and companies are actively looking to replenish their workforce to address growing economic demands, Express Employment Professionals offices across Southwestern Florida are stepping in to help with their inaugural “Job-a-Thon” event.
The 12-hour “Job-a-Thon” to be held on Tuesday, August 24th allows job seekers to call their local Express offices anytime from 8 a.m. to 8 p.m. and immediately speak with a recruiter regarding their skills and interests. Instead of requiring job seekers to physically come into offices to apply for positions, job seekers can call Express at their convenience during the 12-hour event to explore local employment opportunities.
The Southwestern Florida Region consists of Seven Participating Express Employment Professionals locations hosting their first “Job-a-Thon” designed to allow job seekers greater flexibility on when to speak with a recruiter, according to Diane Frazer, local Express franchisee.
“Our goal for the Job-a-Thon is to connect with as many people on the phone as possible, and we’ll be doing an initial 15-minute phone interview, going over people’s work history, learning what they’re looking for, and then talking about the many opportunities within a variety of industries. After that, we’ll walk them through what the next steps are from there,” As students are returning to class, and businesses are hiring- we are ready to get our community back to work and match people with local companies.”
