Growth at T.F. Green Airport Drives Second Major Job Fair -- Sept 21

T.F. Green Airport will host a job fair at the Radisson Hotel in Warwick on Thursday, September 21 from 3 p.m. to 6 p.m. The airport has been in hyper-growth. It has more than doubled its direct flights in less than a year from 17 to 35 and is now an international airport.

The companies featured in the job fair include AirServ Corp, American Airlines, Delta Global Services, Frontier Airlines, HMS Host, Northstar Aviation, Ocean State Aviation, Paradies Lagardere and Standard Parking Plus.

“This is an excellent opportunity to obtain a full or part-time job at the airport and we would encourage all Rhode Islanders looking for work to stop by the job fair next Thursday. T.F. Green is on the move and with the addition of four airlines during the past few months it has created a surge in the need for employees throughout the airport to support our operations and passengers,” said Iftikhar Ahmad, president, and CEO of the Rhode Island Airport Corporation.
