State Senator Joseph Addabbo Jr. is hosting his annual senior job fair today at Queens Community House, 80-02 Kew Gardens Road, from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m.
The event aims to connect seniors looking for work in various fields – including health care, retail, sales, security and other areas – to employers. Representatives from the various companies in attendance will collect resumes and meet with potential job candidates to discuss openings within the organization.
“Finding a job is always an uphill battle, but the task is even more difficult for our senior population,” said Addabbo. “The cost of living continues to rise, and more and more people over 55 find themselves coming out of retirement or having their circumstances change and needing once again to search for a way to make ends meet. It is important that we provide these individuals with the resources they need to succeed in their job search. I am proud to once again host my annual Senior Job Fair and look forward to meeting the eager job seekers at this event next month.”
The job fair is free to attend for both job seekers and employers.
