We are equally committed to connecting our citizens with these companies and these new job opportunities. The HireAnderson Job Fair is another step in facilitating those connections and getting our Anderson citizens jobs,” states Mayor Kevin S. Smith. About HireAnderson: The HireAnderson Initiative seeks to connect Anderson residents to available jobs in Anderson, Madison County, and central Indiana by working directly with businesses. Residents only need to enter basic contact information, work history and an educational history on the HireAnderson portal. From there, the information is forwarded to interested companies with job openings and organizations that provide employment assistance.
