What is your work persona?

 

August 10th was the Land-of-Sky, Asheville-Madison County-Henderson County Chamber of Commerce, Madison County  & NCWorks Asheville Career Center's "$18 Per Hour & Beyond Job Fair."  It was a successful event in matching employers and job seekers looking for new opportunities with greater than 70 employers inside and outside in the overflow areas. 

Among the hundreds of job seekers were experienced workers.  Many experienced workers had highly skilled work experiences or were newly geographically located in a new Western North Carolina Community.
