“These events are placing people back into the workforce and we are pleased to say that our December event had the most on-site hires of any previous event,” Raudel Garza, Harlingen EDC CEO, said.

“This series of job fairs was created out of a need to fill job openings our employers had and these events are helping bring employers and job seekers together."

Job seekers can expect to find job openings in a variety of industries including healthcare, law enforcement, education, service and hospitality, skills and technical trade, and others.

"We are still seeing lower turnout rates at many of our job fair events, but the Workforce Wednesday events have been consistent in having a variety of employers from all sorts of industries, to also drawing in a steady flow of job seekers ready to work," Rey Tejada, Workforce Solutions Cameron, said.

"We encourage employers to sign up now to participate and to all job seekers, we invite you to come out on Wednesday, Feb. 9, ready to find a job that's right for you."
