“Today, I was informed about a Hospitality Information Session being hosted by the Department of Employment Services, Homewood Suites, and Hampton Inn. It is taking place tomorrow 1pm-4pm at Trinidad Recreation Center.

If you or someone else you know is interested in Hospitality Employment Opportunities, please have them contact me or forward their contact information to me so that I may pass along to Department of Employment Services. Interested candidates will be required to register in DCNetworks.org.

DOES informed me that there will be other sessions like this coming our way in the future and they ensured me that they will provide more advance notice.

Thanks,

Keisha
