A training session for city residents interested in applying for jobs at the Horseshoe Casino Baltimore will be held this Thursday and Friday (May 1 and 2) between 6-9 pm at the Liberty Rec and Technology Center, 3901 Maine Avenue.
“There is still space available,” said program trainer Linda Towe, even though the website says the event is sold out.
The free session (register here) will help prepare applicants with resume writing, interview skills and job readiness training. Those completing the two-day program will receive a “Horseshoe Legendary Academy” certificate that will give them a “leg up” during interviews for casino jobs next week at M&K Bank Stadium, Towe said.
Casino operator Caesars Entertainment and Mayor Stephanie Rawlings-Blake are seeking 1,200 city residents to fill jobs when the casino opens at the end of summer.
A major hiring event will take place next Monday through Wednesday (May 5-7) between 8 a.m. and 4 p.m. at the northeast suite of M&T Stadium, located at 1101 Russell St.
Job applicants must be at least 21 years old, with a high school diploma or GED, able to pass a drug test and with no gambling offenses or other serious crimes, including theft and fraud, for the last seven years.
