Residents of Lincoln and Lancaster County are invited to attend a career fair to explore a wide variety of opportunities. “It takes a diverse, talented, and dedicated team to support the needs of our vibrant community,” says Mayor Leirion Gaylor Baird. “From the specialists whose care supports our elder residents, to the public health nurses who provide wellness clinics for children and families, to the bus drivers who conduct the vital service of connecting residents to their jobs and schools – the opportunities to deliver meaningful services to our neighbors are plentiful.”
The City and County have more than 100 job opportunities in diverse roles such as recreation leaders and assistants, StarTran bus operators, public health nurses, County correctional officers, juvenile detention officers, police trainees, civil engineers and heavy equipment operators.
To help fill those positions, the Lincoln-Lancaster County Human Resources Department will host a career fair from 3 to 7 p.m., Thursday, September 29 at the Auld Pavilion in Antelope Park.
Human Resources Director Barb McIntyre said representatives from 11 City and eight County departments will be available at the job fair to answer questions and help prospective employees with the application process.
“We offer diverse jobs in a variety of career tracks that afford people the opportunity to apply their talents in an environment that offers competitive pay, generous time off and benefits that allow you to care for yourself and your family, in addition to giving back to the community through your work,” McIntyre said.
