The City of Peachtree Corners is partnering with Explore Gwinnett and the Atlanta Marriott Peachtree Corners in sponsoring a job fair at the Marriott on Tuesday, June 22, from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m.
Area hotels and other hospitality venues have reported difficulty in attracting workers following the year-long pandemic. And more and more people are now traveling for both business and pleasure.
“Having our hotels up and running is critical for business,” said Mayor Mike Mason. “Hotels were forced to close and lay off workers during the pandemic. Now, as more and more people are vaccinated, hotels are facing a staffing crunch. Some hotels are seeing unprecedented labor shortages.”
Complimentary digital head shots and refreshments will be available to job seekers. Human resources representatives from most of the area hotels will be accepting applications. Many will be performing interviews and hiring for hospitality positions on the spot. Hourly pay for these positions ranges from $10 to $18 an hour, depending on the hotel and type of work.
The Atlanta Marriott Peachtree Corners is located at 475 Technology Parkway.
