⚓ WHAT A TURNOUT!

More than 2,100 people attended today’s Port Everglades Career & Job Fair, meeting with maritime and port-related vendors and employers from across South Florida.

🌠Applicants explored careers in logistics, shipping, operations, security, hospitality, transportation, skilled trades and more — all tied to the powerful economic engine that is Port Everglades.

Broward County Commissioners Alexandra P. Davis and Lamar Fisher greeted those looking for work and the many vendors who were looking to hire qualified candidates for a variety of maritime related industry jobs.

Thank you to every employer, vendor, applicant and community partner who made this event such a tremendous success.

⛴️🛟Opportunity is here in Broward County.

Good luck to everyone looking to work in Broward!
