Aspiring job seekers head downtown for Urban Erie Community Development Corporation job fair
Aspiring job candidates made their way downtown hoping to land a new job.
The Urban Erie Community Development Corporation (UECDC) held a job fair campaign on Friday.
From 11 a.m. to 2 p.m., job seekers can come to the Warner Theatre and meet with a variety of potential employers who are currently hiring.
The goal of this event was to build a pipeline to employment and help younger generations find a career path.
'Today not only are the seeds of hope planted to find quality people who want to work but to also push back against that wave that seems to be coming to somehow reduce the talent skills and opportunities of new Americans of people of color of young people and of women,' said Gary Horton, director of the Urban Erie Community Development Corporation.
