Job Leads in the Area

One purpose of this blog is to share information I come across in my daily walk that would be of service to people. Many of you might not know this, but we run a mini-employment service out of our Charlotte Congressional office. Every Friday for the past 10 years I have met with job seekers to assist them in their search. We make no promises as to finding a job, but I have found that we have a strong network of people that can assist people as they network their way to employment.

We frequently hear of job openings before they are public, as Sue and I tour many businesses in the 9th District. During our tours, we learn of future expansion plans and hiring opportunities.

Here are some leads for those of you looking for a job:
