Job fair Thursday

PRESCOTT – Three different groups are working together to host a job fair Thursday, June 15 from 9 a.m. until 2 p.m.

The fair will be held in the Potlatch Building at the Nevada County Fairgrounds. While the fair is primarily to assist displaced workers from Holcim, it is open to anyone looking for a job or hoping to improve their station with a better job. Those groups are: Arkansas Division of Workforce Services, Southwest Arkansas Planning and Development District and the Prescott-Nevada County Economic Development Office.

While nine businesses have already signed up to participate, more are being sought. The goal is to help provide training and other services for business and industry. All kinds of jobs will be presented at the job fair.
