Massachusetts has one of the strongest economies in the country. The state leads in technology jobs and low unemployment. But many jobs remain unfilled because of a lack of qualified skilled workers.

This Sunday on 22News InFocus we’ll be discussing the state’s creation of MASS HIRE, an initiative to unify the entire Massachusetts Workforce Development System. The idea is to increase career opportunities for job seekers and provide a greater selection of skilled workers for employers.

If you’re an employer looking for qualified job applicants, or if you’re a job seeker or looking to change careers you’ll want to watch 22News InFocus, this Sunday at noon LIVE on the air or streaming on your mobile device using the 22News app. And if you miss it, you’ll find it on our website at WWLP.com.
