Skilled Workers Can Get Jobs
Three employment specialists from States across the country told of a variety of barriers in hiring minority group workers, but agreed that those who have developed skills that employers want—irrespective of their race, color, or creed—have little trouble finding jobs.
This was the consensus of employment-service representatives from California, North Dakota, and New York in reports at the Department of Labor-sponsored Minority Group Conference in Washington, D.C.
The three-day gathering of employment service representatives from 17 States and the District of Columbia, here to exchange views on placement of minority group workers, is being attended by five observers from Afro-Asian countries keenly interested in the progress of minority rights in the United States.
