Attend Somerset County Library System of New Jersey’s (SCLSNJ) Job and Volunteer Fair for Persons with Disabilities on April 7 from 4-7 p.m. The event will be hosted at the Bridgewater branch, located at 1 Vogt Drive in Bridgewater. This event is specifically targeted to adults and teens (16 and up) with cognitive and developmental disabilities.

“Job fairs introduce talented job seekers to hiring managers in a convenient, neutral venue,” said Nan Peterson, branch manager. “During a brief three hour time span, candidates learn directly what industry-specific skills employers prioritize. Job seekers also have an opportunity to hone their interviewing skills while uncovering what positions are available as well as the typical pay for these positions.”
