Congratulations to Luis, and to Gaudin Ford!
THIS is how Gaudin Ford is connecting early to the #talent pipeline. Gaudin Motor Company is one of more than 280 local employers participating in Southern Nevada's Industry Sector Partnerships that bring together employers from our region's target industries to align talent development. Gaudin Motor Company works directly with Clark County School District high schools to recruit and provide career pathways to students in the District's automotive technology programs. This strategy is a win-win as it allows high schools to learn the qualifications needed for employment in this in-demand field, while building a pipeline of young talent for Gaudin's growing businesses. Gaudin Motor Company hired 8️⃣ 2024 #CCSD graduates into various positions at its Southern Nevada dealerships and service centers. 🎥 One of them is Luis, who recently graduated from East Career Technical Academy. #industrysectorpartnerships Cesar M.

Nevada sees a loss of jobs; Unemployment rate increases Nevada’s labor market softened in July, as unemployment increased again and employment declined slightly over the month. This decline was concentrated in the leisure & hospitality sector, which fell by 5,000 jobs from June to July, while most other industries grew, leading to an overall decline of 1,500 jobs over the month. It is possible that this estimate was affected by the closure of the Mirage, which closed on July 17, impacting the casino hotel, food services, and casino support industries.” said David Schmidt, Chief Economist. According to the July 2024 economic report, Nevada’s unemployment rate increased by 0.2 percentage points to 5.4% and the state saw a decrease of 1,500 non-farm jobs. Metropolitan Statistical Area (MSA) Employment (Seasonally Adjusted): *Las Vegas employment decreased by 300 jobs (0.0%) since June, an increase of 38,100 jobs (3.4%) since July 2023. *Reno employment had a decrease of 300 jobs (-0.1%) since June, an increase of 4,800 jobs (1.8%) since July 2023. *Carson City employment had a decrease of 200 jobs (-0.6%) since June, an increase of 300 jobs (0.9%) since July 2023. “

Success with the power of teamwork and drive 🌟 Susan lost her hearing as an adult, and came to VR Nevada. Together she and her counselor made a plan to become a Certified #Paralegal from #UNLV’s online program. While training, Susan learned she was a candidate for cochlear implants to get her hearing back. Working with Vocational Rehabilitation gave her confidence to find an employer and paralegal career. In 2016 Susan, looking for consistent work and health benefits, she joined Commission on Postsecondary Education (CPE). In 2019, CPE moved over to #DETR and of course they were very accommodating to her requests. Last fall Susan applied for, and received a promotion! She feels at home at work, because no one ever feel less than because of her hearing loss. Susan, we are so proud of you! Congratulations. If you or someone you know has a disability Vocations Rehabilitation is here for them from training to on the job accommodations https://vrnevada.nv.gov/ #accessibility #inclusion
