FLUSHING, N.Y., July 9, 2014 /PRNewswire-iReach/ -- On Wednesday, July 9, and Thursday, July 10, the US Open will host a job fair for job seekers from all over greater New York City to learn more about the variety of employment opportunities available at this year's renowned tennis event. The fourth annual US Open Job Fair will be held at the USTA Billie Jean King National Tennis Center in Flushing, Queens, inside the US Open Club located outside Arthur Ashe Stadium.
The event will feature information on opportunities to work directly for the US Open as well as with the tournament's many vendors, who are looking for cooks, drivers, maintenance workers, security personnel, cashiers and customer service representatives. Job seekers will have the opportunity to apply for positions on the spot.
"Having a chance to be part of the team that puts on one of the greatest sporting events in the world is a great opportunity for anyone," said Danny Zausner, Chief Operating Officer, USTA Billie Jean King National Tennis Center. "For the two weeks of the US Open, Flushing Meadows is the center of the sports world, and we're delighted to once again provide our Queens neighbors and tri-state residents with the chance to be part of the excitement and fun!"
The United States Tennis Association (USTA), the national governing body for the sport of tennis in the U.S., has again chosen to partner with Brandemix, a branding and marketing agency with a strong niche in employment branding and social recruitment, to host the event. To attract the highest-quality candidates for these coveted positions, Brandemix is promoting the recruitment job fair through print and online media as well as social outreach and an interactive website, www.teamusopentennis.org.

No matter what position they get hired for, it's three weeks they'll never forget."
