HAGERSTOWN - Congressman John K. Delaney (MD-6) hosted a Western Maryland Job Fair Tuesday afternoon in Hagerstown attended by over 500 people. Over 60 local employers participated in the event, which took place at Kaplan University in Hagerstown.

'A new job can truly transform someone's life, but all too often people don't know where to look. There are many talented and hard-working people in Western Maryland looking for a new opportunity and there are local employers who are looking to hire - this workshop was about bringing job-seekers and employers together under one roof,' said Congressman Delaney. 'I believe that one of my fundamental responsibilities as a Representative is to organize events like this and I would like to thank all the local businesses who participated and everyone who joined us at the job fair.'
