Ohio Means Jobs:

If you ever been on the hunt for a new job you know how tricky it can be. For a variety of reasons, many older Ohioans have found themselves seeking new employment opportunities, but instead of pounding the pavement like we did at the beginning of our careers, we are hitting the keys and surfing the Web. Ohio Means Jobs, is an innovative online job-matching tool that can help you find that perfect occupation. OhioMeansJobs.com also helps employers by giving them free access to millions of resumes from within a 50-mile radius of the state. Connecting businesses with Ohioans seeking jobs here in our great state is a win-win we can all agree on!

Guest:

Mark Birnbrich, project manager with the Ohio Department of Job and Family Services and Ohio Means Jobs website administrator.

The Ohio State Fair:

When I say butter cow, what comes to mind? Does that conjure up images of Ferris wheels, funnel cakes, carnival games and corn dogs? What about passing through the gate spelling out the letters O-H-I-O? Perhaps you think of cows and crops or the lumber jack show. The Ohio State fair opens July 27 and has so much to offer! From the giant slide to free entertainment, there is truly something for everyone.

Guests:

Alicia Notestone, Marketing & Public Relations Director for the Ohio Expo Center and Ohio State Fair
