Capitalizing on its mission statement to promote economic growth and be a primary catalyst for this region’s competitive success, the Blount Partnership is thrilled to announce the launch of its new website, www.BlountAreaJobs.com. This site allows employers to post open positions, gather resumes and schedule interviews, while job seekers can browse for jobs, create profiles, and learn about educational resources to advance their careers.

The site features a quality-of-life section where visitors can learn more about Blount County, its education system and even use its cost-of-living calculator. It will make searching for career opportunities or even part-time jobs more convenient for those seeking to work in Blount County or the region.

“This website is something Blount County employers and prospective employees have needed,” said Blount Partnership Communications Director Jeff Muir. “This is a one-stop place that connects employers and job seekers, while providing resources and links to educational opportunities like soft skills, adult learning to expand skills, internship and apprenticeships, as well as providing more job seeker assistance and assisting those that wish to better market those skills.”

The Blount Partnership invites visitors to explore the new website and follow the links to the many resources offered to aid those seeking to get more out of their careers.
