CareerLink is a new online job board that will connect students from schools and universities with PMMI member companies looking for new talent. PMMI,The Association for Packaging and Processing Technologies, received a $50,000 grant from the Bosch Community Fund in order to connect students and members. This job board is the centerpiece of a new initiative aimed at raising awareness of career opportunities in the packaging and processing industry through fostering relationships with institutions, marketing the industry to students and helping students find entry-level employment and internships.
“This one-of-a-kind job board is the tool the industry needs to drive talent to the packaging and processing industry,” said Paul Jenks, director of sales and marketing, Bosch Packaging Technology Inc. “We see CareerLink as instrumental in helping to close the skills gap and develop a qualified workforce to move this industry forward.”
