Employers

Thank you for your interest in the possibility of reaching out to Laurel Ridge students for job opportunities in your organization!  We value and support our local employers in their endeavors to recruit locally for their open positions.  Many Workforce students are full-time working adults, who attend classes outside of their work time.  In some cases, these students have received tuition assistance from their employers as part of their training and development program. For these reasons, we do not allow direct employment recruitment to occur in our classrooms.  We do however share with these students ways to learn about these opportunities if they have an interest.  We encourage employers to use these established recruitment processes at Laurel Ridge to reach this audience of students who may have an interest in your current job openings.
