3rd District Congressman to Host Job Fair for Constituents, Minnesotans seeking employment at Normandale Community College on Feb. 8th

Congressman  Erik Paulsen (MN-03) today announced he will host a job fair at Normandale Community College in Bloomington on Monday, February 8th.   Scheduled to attend Paulsen’s job fair are a wide variety of employers from health care, technology, retail and several additional employment sectors.  Last week, it was reported that unemployment remained at 10% during the month of December, with 85,000 jobs lost in the month alone.  

“The recession has hit Minnesota workers hard, with jobs remaining very hard to find,” Paulsen said.  “By bringing together potential employers and Minnesotans who are looking for work, I’m hoping this job fair will open up some new possibilities as we continue to work through this challenging economy.”

The job fair is free and open to the public and will run from 1:30 PM – 5:00 PM CST.

Businesses interested in participating can contact Congressman Paulsen’s office at (952) 405-8510 or register at no charge via Paulsen’s website at www.paulsen.house.gov
