Hosted by Spotlight Staffing, the expo will take place May 21 at the InterContinental Saint Paul Riverfront and features interactive demonstrations in aviation, skilled trades, culinary arts, retail, and agriculture. Johnson explains that the event is more than a traditional job fair—it’s focused on building community partnerships, expanding workforce opportunities, and helping people discover high-growth careers, including entry-level positions starting at $60,000 or more with no prior experience required. She also discusses the importance of reconnecting communities and employers following Operation Metro Surge and creating sustainable pathways into careers that strengthen Minnesota’s economy.","thumbnail_url":"https://img.transistorcdn.com/zs4eviQ3HE8Pq7ghnmLeQTdy2xaSHm6CKQRTDAMtL7g/rs:fill:0:0:1/w:400/h:400/q:60/mb:500000/aHR0cHM6Ly9pbWct/dXBsb2FkLXByb2R1/Y3Rpb24udHJhbnNp/c3Rvci5mbS9zaG93/LzEyODEzLzE1OTYw/NjI0NDctYXJ0d29y/ay5qcGc.webp","thumbnail_width":300,"thumbnail_height":300}
