Solving an employer's hiring problems

Article Abstract:

The Great Oaks Institute of Technology and Career Development, Cincinnati, developed 'Project HIRE' in response to the Ohio governor's call for help to increase the labor pool in an area of full employment. Considering the nature of work in the freight company in question, emphasis was put on the worker's ability to finish the work on time and inter-personal skills. The institute was able to cater to the employees' needs due to its extensive resources and a quick response team of instructors working with local businesses and community agencies.
