Job Fair in South Carolina 9-22-21
During the past year and a half job seekers and employers have opened their eyes and learned some new skills as we all pretty much go virtual during the interviewing process, either on the phone or laptop. Tomorrow job seekers and employers will get to meet face-to-face at the York County Regional Job Fair. You still have to wear your masks and take precautions to protect everyone attending, but SC Works believes this will help local businesses staff up and for job seekers to land employment in their own backyard in South Carolina.
This project stemmed from SC Works partnering with the City of Rock Hill, Rock Hill Economic Development, York County Economic Development and York County Growth Partners who have all been committed to making this job fair a success. Participating employers include: WEIMA America, Oxco, Comporium, Metrolina Greenhouses, Lap Tech Industries, Adecco, Domtar Paper Company, CWF Crating, Banker Steel, DecisionPath, Keer America, Unique USA, Masonite, Meritor, Panther Heating and Air, Schaeffler Group, A+ Medical, Possehl Connector Services, New Indy Containerboard, FedEx Ground, Le Grand, Nation Ford Chemical, Greif, City of Rock Hill, American Security, Elite Logistix, Coroplast Tape, York County Government, Shutterfly, Old Castle BuildingEnvelope, York County Sheriff’s Office, Bedgear, Broad River Furniture, Allegience Staffing, MacLean Power Systems, Stanley Black & Decker, All Cornhole, Transaxle, La-Z-Boy, Leroy Springs and NFI.

The Rock Hill Sports and Events Center is located at 326 Technology Center Way, just a few blocks off Dave Lyle Boulevard and a block off West White St. The job fair may also be accessed via My Ride, the City of Rock Hill’s free electric bus transportation system.
