Looking for employees? Looking for a new job? The Eastern Sierra Small Business Resource Center, along with several area partners is pleased to announce a new event designed to connect local employers with job seekers. Eastern Sierra Employment Day will be held in the Tallman Pavilion at the Tri-County Fair & Event Center on Tuesday, May 16, 2023.
“This event will be much more than a traditional job fair,” explains Tawni Thomson of the Bishop Chamber of Commerce. From 10am to 2pm, partnering organizations will offer workshop sessions for employers with a focus on helping local, independently owned businesses learn best practices for building a successful team.
Topics will include:
Recruitment and Employee Retention Strategies
Strategies to Stay Competitive Beyond Wages
Job Training Resources to Upskill Your Existing Workforce
Leveraging the “Gig Economy”
Management of Remote Workforce
Customer Service and Technology
Following the workshops, there will be a job fair from 3pm – 6pm. This part of the event will connect job seekers with local employees ready to hire. There will be no charge to take part in Eastern Sierra Employment Day and businesses from Inyo and Mono Counties in all industries are welcome. Employers are encouraged to pre-register for the workshops and reserve a table for the job fair through Eventbrite.
This event is made possible thanks to generous sponsorship provided by Alta One and several supporting partners including Bishop Chamber of Commerce, Cerro Coso Community College, Eastern Sierra Small Business Resource Center, Inyo County, The Job Spot, Mono County, Owens Valley Career Development Center, Sierra Business Council and SBA Small Business Development Center.

None of this matters if people can’t find a place to live without having to work 80+ hours a week to pay their rent.

Thanks to the Nationwide sweep of American GREED since the pandemic..
Housing in Bishop was difficult to come by way before the pandemic David.
Taking Action
Maybe hard to come by pre-pandemic, but when you did find,not the attempted GREED you see now..
Recently,a three bed-two bath offered in Lone Pine…
For $2,000.00 a month !!…nice house,nice area… but come on,man !!
Thankfully. my landlord is fair,not greedy..knowing the house they rent to me has increased in property-value a LOT since they putchased the home I live in,and charge me a quarter of what that landlord in the Alabama Hills is trying to get from someone now.
Who on earth can, or would pay $2,000.00 a month to RENT a home ?
Not I..even IF I could afford it..
Exactly. Inyo County is one of the only counties in the state where rent and real estate has not seen price reductions. Greedy landlords need to pay attention before local lawmakers do and start looking at rent control ordinances.
