“New Hampshire Employment Security’s Job and Resource Fairs, which connect New
Hampshire’s talented workers with employers looking to hire, are an important part of our
efforts to expand middle class opportunity and keep our economy moving in the right direction,
and I’d like to thank New Hampshire Employment Security and participating employers for
working together to make this fair possible,” Governor Hassan said.

"Good employment opportunities in the North Country keep our workforce in the state and
provide the ability for workers to support their families and to advance their careers," states
Executive Councilor Joseph Kenney.

Senator Jeff Woodburn states, "We know in Coos County that a job can change a life, stabilize a
family and build a community. We are fortunate to have government agencies, like the
Department of Employment Security, who understand the economic and social benefits of
creating opportunities for not only the unemployed but all workers and toils tirelessly and
creatively to put people to work."

“The Berlin Job and Resource Fair is an opportunity for job seekers to meet face-to-face with a
variety of employers, develop a network of professional contacts and have an opportunity to ask
employers questions about their specific organization or industry,” states Commissioner
George Copadis of New Hampshire Employment Security. New Hampshire continues to support
and provide the necessary tools to our unemployed or underemployed residents to secure that
next good job.
