We're trying to help with this by making NORAMARK free for public schools. We think the new events calendar (released today) can be great for manufacturers to host factory tours for schools and others. We also have the jobs section of the forums so companies can post jobs.
Coming soon, users of NORAMARK will be able to post their work history if they choose to. This can also be a useful way to find employees / employers.
We've seen this as an urgent need and Linkedin and other jobs platforms are just too noisy and recruiter-oriented. We want NORAMARK to be a simple way to pair workers with jobs.
