BINGHAMTON, N.Y. — The Greater Binghamton Chamber of Commerce is hosting its biannual job and career fair on Sept. 8 from 2-6 p.m. at the Holiday Inn Binghamton Downtown.
Local businesses are encouraged to register for the event, which is designed to provide a seamless and effective recruitment experience.
“The most important resource for any employer is their people,” Stacey Duncan, CEO of the Leadership Alliance strategic partnership between The Agency and the Greater Binghamton Chamber, said in a press release. “Especially as we emerge from the COVID-19 pandemic, when talking to business owners, we are seeing recurring themes and anxieties surrounding the workforce shortage. As the chamber, when the business community is supposed to be making their economic comeback, but instead finds their production or hours reduced and doors closed due to low staffing, we must take action to help our business community fill these positions and get back on their feet.”

So far, 30 companies — from a variety of industries, including health care, high tech, finance, education, and manufacturing — are registered for the chamber’s job and career fair.
