The search for qualified employees by local businesses to fill summer vacancies is real, which is why the Rehoboth Beach-Dewey Beach Chamber of Commerce recently hosted a job fair for the first time in a number of years.
“It was requested,” said Abbie Kaiser, chamber membership representative and event coordinator.
Chamber staff were on hand greeting potential employees at the door of the Rehoboth Mall, where the April 16 event was held. They said there were 70 businesses looking for employees and they could have had close to 100 if COVID-related spacing wasn’t required. Businesses of all types were on hand – restaurants, medical, manual labor, law enforcement, hotels and cleaning services.
