Gov. Andrew Cuomo last week announced that more than 82,000 positions are available on the state’s Jobs Express website.
Jobs Express connects job seekers to openings in each region of the state and currently lists an average of 51,000 new jobs each month statewide, the governor’s office said in a news release.
The Jobs Express website takes thousands of jobs that employers post and sorts them by region to help job seekers evaluate what industries are growing in their area and find out what opportunities are available in specific economic sectors.
