HIRING FOR HYDRO


Picture
HIRING FOR HYDRO brings together students from colleges throughout the region to participate in an educational workshop about careers in hydropower followed by a special recruiting session. The event was established to address the hiring needs of the industry, build academic interest at the college level and create a strong conduit between industry and regional schools.
