The Marathon Birmingham team recently participated in Jefferson County’s Department of Human Resources Annual Job Fair on June 17 in partnership with the University of Alabama at Birmingham (UAB) Trio Educational Opportunity Center.
We joined other Birmingham employers and training organizations in this opportunity to meet job seekers interested in fields that included healthcare, construction, hospitality, and more. As a participating vendor, Marathon contributed towards hourly name drawings and other fun activities that took place throughout the day.
“It’s always a pleasure to give back to our community in such a meaningful way,” Linda Patterson from the Marathon Birmingham office reflected on the event. Linda has also been an active member of the DHR Advisory Board since 2010.
Marathon is a long-standing collaborator of Jefferson County, participating regularly in this annual event. We are happy to have been able to assist over 65 individuals on their professional journeys so far from the interactions our representatives, Linda and Nancy Morris, had during the job fair.
We appreciate the opportunity to join Jefferson County’s DHR and UAB’s Trio Educational Opportunity Center and look forward to future opportunities to continue to contribute to our local community!
