According to the San Gabriel Valley Tribune, recent headlines and statistics show how tough the job market is these days. For former medical lab worker Patty Gamboa, 50, this reigns true for her since a year ago, she was laid off. The company she worked for went bankrupt, and since then, job opportunities have been hard to come by.
“It’s really rough,” the Covina resident said. “There are a lot of people out of work right now and there’s more and more competition.” However, on Monday, she joined other job seekers at a Career Expo at the Foothill Employment and Training Connection One-Stop Career Center in Pasadena.
The center had a variety of employers in attendance, including Kaiser Permanente, Ajilon Professional Staffing, the Langham Huntington Pasadena Hotel, Avery Dennison, Inter-Con Security Systems, and more. By 12:30 pm, 421 job seekers had already visited the job fair, and by the end of the event, that figure rose to 664.
