We all like to see job growth in our state. Several job postings in Georgia and recent announcements are worth sharing- and good news for Georgia workers looking for jobs.
First, we’re fortunate to have a thriving healthcare industry here in Georgia. The promise of 900 new jobs at Kaiser Permanente just made the jobs outlook even brighter for metro-Atlanta workers.
