Mayor Eric Johnson has announced he is partnering with Workforce Solutions of Greater Dallas to host Hire Dallas!, a virtual job fair for Dallas Works, his summer employment program for the city’s youth.
The mayor is calling on Dallas employers and young people to register for the job fair, which begins at 9 a.m. Thursday, June 10. The fair will be open until 4 p.m. Numerous employers and community resources will participate to connect young people with job opportunities this summer.
Dozens of employers have signed up with thousands of jobs available.
“As we emerge from the COVID-19 pandemic, we must strive to be a city of opportunity for our young people who have endured major disruptions to their lives and their development during the past 14 months,” Mayor Johnson said. “Through Dallas Works, we can help teach our young residents important life and job skills and provide our employers with talent that can help them rebound from the pandemic’s terrible economic toll.”
Dallas residents ages 15-24 can register now to participate in the job fair at https://hiredallas2021.easyvirtualfair.com/
