May Job Fests continue in Middlebury, Bennington
The Vermont Department of Labor’s series of May Job Fest hiring events continued in Middlebury last Thursday, bringing together employers from across southwestern Vermont to highlight career opportunities.
More than 50 employers, including Porter Medical Center, Danforth Pewter, Dairy Farmers of America, Casella, and more from Addison County and the local region participated in the second Job Fest event this month. With rain storms moving through the area for much of the afternoon, the event was moved indoors to the Middlebury Parks and Recreation building. Amid these non-ideal weather conditions, more than 60 jobseekers still came out to tour the event. More than 250 total job seekers have now attended Job Fest events, with a previous event being held on May 3 in Rutland.
