The Central Jersey “Drive Thru Job Fair” is scheduled for Oct. 15 from 10 a.m. to 1 p.m. in Brookdale Community College Parking Lot 7, 765 Newman Spring Road, Lincroft. The event is sponsored by the Monmouth County Board of Freeholders in collaboration with the County’s Workforce Development Board, as well as Middlesex and Ocean counties.
Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, participating employers will not be attending in person. Employers will submit fliers advising jobs that are available, a description of the job and how to reach their company. The Workforce Development Board will organize the fliers of potential job opportunities and provide job-seekers with a uniform packet that will be distributed during the job fair.
Job-seekers interested in more information may call 732-683-8850, ext. 2525, or email christine.dykeman@dol.nj.gov
The Monmouth County SPCA will host an adoption event on Oct. 17 from noon to 4 p.m. at World Subaru, 688 Shrewsbury Ave., in Shrewsbury. The event will feature adoptable dogs and puppies, and have a fun autumn theme, with a pumpkin patch and pumpkins for purchase, haystacks and a fall-themed photobooth. All are welcome to attend.
Thanks to the ASPCA & Subaru Loves Pets Grant Program, all of the dogs and puppies will have been fully vetted (vaccinated, microchipped, spay/neutered, etc.) before going home with their forever families. Aside from the MCSPCA’s adoptable dogs, this will be a human-only event, however, dog-dog meets for potential adopters can take place at the Eatontown shelter at a later date, according to a press release.
World Subaru will be donating $100 for each animal adopted in October, up to $3,100. For more information about the adoption event, email events@monmouthcountyspca.org, call 732-440-1557 or visit www.monmouthcountyspca.org
