The career fair seeks to connect residents of Cumberland County and the surrounding area with available jobs.

“The goal of this career fair is to make sure our residents know about the County’s job opportunities,” said Cumberland County Human Resources Director Dominique Hall. “Whether you currently have a job or not, we want you to know that Cumberland County is a great place to work and that we have positions available at entry level and for those who already have experience.”
During the career fair, County departments including the Department of Social Services, Department of Public Health, Cumberland County Sheriff’s Office, Public Library, Register of Deeds, Child Support and Planning & Inspections will be attending the job fair. Benefits will have a booth with information about the department and current job opportunities.
