Employers in Cherokee County are looking to hire more than 600 workers at a March 25 job fair.
The job fair, the first sponsored by the Cherokee Office of Economic Development, will be held 2 p.m. to 6 p.m. at the Northside Cherokee Conference Center at The Bluffs, 1130 Bluffs Parkway in Canton.
Job openings are available in range of occupations and sectors, including customer service, retail, finance, health care, information technology, advanced manufacturing and small business.
The county said the growth in jobs has been fueled by the addition of 12 corporations over the past three years and 43 expansions since 2012.
Inalfa Roof Systems recently announced an expansion in the Cherokee 75 Corporate Park will generate at least 300 jobs by 2019.
Career specialists from Chattahoochee Technical College and the Georgia Department of Labor, which is also co-sponsoring the event, will be available at the job fair to help job seekers with resumes.
Additional information about the job fair is available at the COED website.
