EMPLOYER TOURS

We facilitate employer tours to connect our workforce partners and those that they serve with local employers who are seeking new employees and resources. We are interested in working with employers from a variety of industries, including healthcare, IT, manufacturing, construction, and more. If you are an employer and are interested in hosting a tour, we want to learn what factors would be conducive to a successful tour of your facilities and get a preview of all the benefits of working at your organization. And if you are a part of our workforce/talent partner network, we would like to hear from you about what might be most meaningful to get from these tours for the people you serve. Please share your thoughts and ideas so that we can arrange great tours that will help fill open positions with local talent here in the Cincinnati region!
