Creating strong employer connections through regular job seeker events

Leading CareerForce Partner Anoka County Job Training Center hosts regular hiring events and employer of the day panels on the first and third Wednesday of every month at CareerForce in Blaine.

This regular cadence helps both job seekers and employers know how to plan for opportunities to connect with one another. Both employers and job seekers participate in these events at no cost.

Since 2023, 8,858 job seekers have participated in hiring events and employer of the day panels, meeting with an average of 12 employers at the hiring events to learn about employment opportunities. Due to this consistent outreach with area employers, more than 900 local employers are part of the Anoka County Job Training Center network. This extensive network means area staff can help connect job seekers and employers directly even outside of events.
