A new website developed by Templeâs Economic Development Corp. provides businesses and residents interested in relocating with information detailing just about every aspect of local life.
The website MeetTemple.com features a cost-of-living calculator, a job search tool and an employer toolkit filled with tools to help local human resources professionals recruit new talent, said Amanda Carson, TEDC’s director of marketing and communications.
âThis is kind of my baby,â Carson said. âThe site showcases Temple and gives hiring professionals a recruiting toolbox.
âThe website helps local employers attract talent to our growing city and helps job seekers find new opportunities here,â she said.
The Temple Civic Theater is launching a new talk show Saturday night that will focus on the actors, directors and crew of past and future productions.
