'Jobs and Opportunity Fair' Nov. 22 at Crowne Plaza

A Career and Opportunities Fair later is scheduled for Nov. 22 to help connect local residents with jobs and employment opportunities throughout the Granite State. The fair will take place at the  Crowne Plaza Hotel, 2 Somerset Parkway, in Nashua, and feature employers from the manufacturing, finance, healthcare, and recreation industries, among others.

The event will be hosted by U.S. Congresswoman Annie Kuster, D-NH. 

“My top priority is helping create jobs and opportunity for middle class families in the Granite State,” Kuster said. “That’s what this jobs fair is all about – connecting local job seekers with a wide variety of New Hampshire employers who are looking to grow their businesses and hire new workers.”

 More than two dozen employers and professional groups will be represented at the fair, including:

·         Corfin Industries

·         Crotched Mountain

·         Crotched Mountain Ski and Ride Area

·         Dyn

·         The Rapid Group

·         Two C Pack

A member of the House Small Business Committee, Kuster has prioritized efforts to foster job creation, grow the economy, and expand opportunity for middle class families. The first bill she authored would incentivize public-private partnerships to improve workforce development for New Hampshire students. Last month, Kuster introduced legislation to extend and expand a federal pilot program to help boost small businesses exports. She has also supported legislation to make permanent the federal research and development tax credit, helped lead the fight to prevent pending regulations from harming New England farmers, and worked to protect New Hampshire small businesses from burdensome online sales tax collection requirements.
