Three times a year, Job Quest host a fair at the Neal Blaisdell Center in Honolulu for prospective recruiters and job seekers. During this past session, there was a record 180 employers at the fair, but a dwindling number of job seekers at approximately 4,000 to choose from. In comparison, the highest number of job seekers at a Job Quest fair was in May 2011 when over 7,000 people attended.
Executive Director of Job Quest noted that there are definitely more employers hiring, but many of the applicants lack the training of job experience to be hired. Busch stated, “People have been talking about how there are no jobs, but then people realized there are positions. Employers just can’t find qualified applicants.”
