Belfast job fair to have over 60 businesses present

This year they have close to 60 employers coming from areas all across the state.

Unemployment has been relatively low in the Belfast area for quite some time, which is a problem for employers trying to find people to fill positions.

Economic Director Thomas Kittredge said "We hope the job fair is a way to hopefully meet some of that need. Employers will even be doing some interviews at the job fair for some candidates, and we've started an hour earlier this year to hopefully make it more accessible for people to come to the event."

The job fair will be March 20th at the University of Maine Hutchinson Center from 9 a.m. to 2 p.m.
