More Than 400 Attend Ritchie’s Oswego County Job Fair

Annual Event Featured Nearly 50 Employers 

More than 400 job seekers packed the Fulton Community Ice Arena Tuesday for State Senator Patty Ritchie’s 2015 Oswego County Job Fair. 

The annual event featured nearly 50 employers, many of which were looking to hire immediately.

“While creating jobs is a big part of boosting our economy, matching people seeking work with employers who are looking for talented individuals to join their team is a big part of the equation too,” said Senator Ritchie. 

“I’m hopeful that today’s event was successful in helping individuals find rewarding careers that allow them to utilize their skills and make a difference in our region.”

Wednesday’s event marked the second Job Fair this year hosted by Senator Ritchie and the 10^th she has hosted as Senator.  Last month, hundreds of people attended her St. Lawrence County Job Fair, held in Ogdensburg.
