MGM Springfield, Cambridge College Continue Jobs Partnership
SPRINGFIELD — Preparations for the Aug. 24 grand opening of MGM Springfield are non-stop, and that includes the company’s ongoing hiring efforts. Starting today, July 24, the MGM Springfield workforce-development team will set up its Job Talk Tuesday for the next month at Cambridge College.
Job Talk Tuesday has been a weekly Facebook Live Q&A session where MGM Springfield’s workforce-development representatives answer questions as they are posted on the MGM Springfield Facebook page. With Cambridge College hosting, the MGM Springfield team will be migrating Job Talk Tuesday from Facebook Live to an in-person Q&A session to discuss the opportunities ongoing at MGM Springfield.
“At MGM, we never stop hiring and looking for exceptional local talent,” said Wanda Gispert, regional vice president, Talent & Workforce Development for MGM Resorts. “Our local partnerships have been key to our hiring success. We are well on our way to exceeding many workforce goals that were set for MGM Springfield, but to keep pace and support a 24-hour, 365-day resort, we can’t slow down now.”
In addition to Job Talk Tuesday, the event at Cambridge College will highlight the flexible evening, weekend, and online class schedules being offered at the college. Attendees will have the opportunity to see how it is possible to fit school into a busy life, obtain information about licensure and certification options, and discover what financial-aid resources and scholarships are available.
No registration is required to join Job Talk Tuesday at Cambridge College. Representatives will be available Tuesdays July 24 through Aug. 28 from 5 to 6:30 p.m. Attendees are encouraged to bring résumés. Cambridge College’s downtown Springfield campus is located at 1500 Main St. in Tower Square.
