MANCHESTER, NH — Dozens of company representatives and recruiters from New Hampshire, Massachusetts and Maine will be on campus April 27 as part of the Automated Manufacturing Job Fair. There is high demand for these jobs throughout the region and Manchester Community College is honored to invite current high school students, college students and adults who are seeking jobs in this field. The hope is to entice people to fill the growing need for workers.
