Florida House of Representatives member Yvonne Hayes Hinson and Ocala City Councilman Ire Bethea, Sr. have partnered with CareerSource Citrus Levy Marion and the College of Central Florida to organize the event.
The job fair will be held on Wednesday, December 8th from 2-4 p.m. at the College of Central Florida’s Hampton Center, located at 1501 W. Silver Springs Blvd., in Ocala.

Hayes Hinson hopes that this event provides citizens, especially young people who need employment, the opportunity to find a job.
“My aim for this event is to give members of the younger generation a legitimate hope for their professional future,” Hayes Hinson said. “Work creates dignity, and every citizen deserves the chance to work.”
