Individuals looking for temporary employment can find several possibilities at this year’s Oregon State Fair. Workers are needed to assist in the food concession areas, the carnival, exhibitor booths, and more.
WorkSource Oregon Employment Department will begin assisting applicants for State Fair jobs on Thursday, August 3. The department will have a temporary office located in a trailer in the Oak Grove, which is on the west side of 17th street across from the green gate.
The trailer will be open Mondays through Fridays from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m. and from 2 p.m. to 6p.m.
To help expedite job placement, applicants are encouraged to register in iMatchSkills prior to visiting the WorkSource Oregon Employment Department trailer. Applicants may register in iMatchSkills online at WorkingInOregon.org, or at their local WorkSource Oregon Employment Department office. All applicants seeking State Fair jobs must be registered in iMatchSkills, so registering before coming to the WorkSource Oregon Employment Department trailer will save time.
Jobs are available for applicants ages 16 and up, and a work permit is not required.
For more information, contact WorkSource Oregon Employment Department at (503) 378-4846, or 503-378-6931 after August 3.
