According to an article by Liza Green in the Fort Wayne Journal Gazette Thursday 3/26 “Northeast Indiana Works and WorkOne Northeast are working with more than 50 employers who are trying to fill jobs, amid thousands of workers being sidelined by the coronavirus pandemic.
Grocery stores that this month announced hiring sprees to keep up with customer demand are on the list, but so are numerous other sectors.”
- Easterseals Arc of Northeast Indiana is trying to hire 90 people
- Menards in Angola hopes to add 30
- Manpower is looking for 30
- Purdue University Fort Wayne seeks 24
According to Liza, detailed numbers for about 35 of the employers on the Northeast Indiana Works list show more than 475 jobs available. Clearly there are now more than 10,000 newly unemployed in our community, so if you need help getting through this disaster it is critical to your family that you be proactive and contact WorkOne immediately. The official DWD Home page, Indiana web site on unemployment and Contacting WorkOne are helpful: all job search and unemployment claims are processed electronically through Indiana Career Connect and the Indiana Uplink CS3 System.
