Dozens of employers are seeking to fill positions that East Texas job seekers will have the opportunity to apply for at Congressman Louie Gohmert’s upcoming East Texas Job Fair at East Texas Baptist University on June 2. The number of employers participating is expected to grow as more businesses and entities hear about the fair and understand how many talented potential employees will be attending. Hiring employers still have time to register their business or entity for the free job fairs, and job seekers with a range of background and experiences are encouraged to attend.
