KENDALLVILLE, Ind. (Inside INdiana Business) – The Noble County Economic Development Corp. is Friday hosting a job fair at the Community Learning Center in Kendallville. The organization says nearly 40 local employers are looking to fill more than 500 jobs in printing, manufacturing, and social services, among others.

The Noble County Job and Resource Fair is scheduled from 8 a.m. to noon.

The organization says it is extending a special invite to employees of LSC Communications in Kendallville, which recently announced the plant’s impending closure. Fair organizers say they hope the event will help those facing job loss to remain part of the community.

The job fair is free and open to the general public as well as any local worker interested in support services. The organization says positions will pay between $15 and $25 per hour.

The EDC says organizations will also be on-hand to provide resources such as resume building, interviewing, family support, and mental health services. Masks will be required inside the building and organizers say other precautions will be taken to help keep participants safe.
