ELMHURST— If you're looking for work, an upcoming job fair is hoping to connect you with your future employer.

Sen. Jose Peralta has teamed up with Woodside on the Move and the Queens Center Mall to host a job fair at the mall on Thursday, July 9 from 8 a.m. until 3 p.m

Dozens of employers — including Coca-Cola Refreshments, Regal Cinemas, Madison Square Garden and the NYPD and FDNY — will be present to take applications for available jobs.

New York Cares, Elmcor Career Pathways and The Fortune Society will also be at the fair to offer career advice and resume help. 

Peralta said the fair will hopefully help unemployed locals make necessary connections to get back to work. 

"Every potential job opportunity presented could mean a paycheck for our hard-working neighbors," he said.
