Fayette County Chamber and Development Authority provide employment resources

Fayetteville Over the last few months, Fayette County has been affected with many economic hardships that have impacted local residents, most recently with families moving here from the Gulf Coast. But we have also experienced layoffs at Delta and Photocircuits. In addition, two military bases will close in the next year or two, possibly causing more layoffs.
In an effort to help those affected, the Fayette County Chamber of Commerce and the Fayette County Development Authority have partnered together to provide local residents with job-seeking resources.
Please keep in mind that both organizations are not job placement agencies. The purpose of this information is to provide as many resources as possible for Fayette County residents.
Job searchers can find information about staffing companies, local job fairs and the Georgia Department of Labor on both organizations' Web sites at www.FayetteChamber.org and www.FayetteGA.org. The Fayette County Development Authority will also post local job openings and resumes.
If you have a job available that you would like to post, please contact Amanda Fields with the Fayette County Development Authority at 770-461-5253.
Those looking for work can send a resume or description of job skills to also be posted on the Web site. This site is in progress, so please check often for updates.
The Fayette County Chamber of Commerce is an association of businesses and organizations that work together to promote economic prosperity and to enhance excellent quality of life through strong leadership, networking, education and a variety of programs that encourage partnerships between businesses and our community.
Fayette County Development Authority is the lead economic development agency for the county and their responsibilities include business and industry recruitment, retention, expansion, financial bonding and job creation for Fayette County.
