PIERRE, S.D. – The Department of Labor and Regulation (DLR) is hosting its “Second Annual Level Up Your Career” statewide virtual hiring event on Wednesday, May 20, from 2-5 p.m. CDT/1-4 p.m. MDT.
This virtual hiring event is designed to allow job seekers to connect online with employers statewide, learn about their companies and open positions, and potentially interview on the same day.
Participating businesses can build brand awareness, find an untapped pool of qualified candidates statewide or through the Dakota Roots program, benefit from real-time interactions with potential employees, and save time and resources finding skilled employees.
Registration is required for both job seekers and businesses. To register, visit https://dlr.sd.gov/localoffices/hiring_events/virtual.aspx, locate the Statewide Virtual Hiring Event, and click the appropriate registration link. While registration remains open until the day of the event, early registration is encouraged to access user guides and resources on the virtual platform in advance.
