Casino Jobs and Business Opportunities Forums Scheduled in Detroit

DETROIT -- The City of Detroit and the three groups selected to develop casinos in Detroit will sponsor a public forum at the Cobo Conference Center on Saturday, June 13, to enable individuals to sign up for consideration for a job with Detroit's casinos.

The following Saturday, June 20, a Business Opportunity Forum will be held to outline the opportunities that will exist for businesses to contract with the casinos.

Individuals who attend the Job Opportunity Forum will fill out job bank cards that will be entered in a shared job bank. The job bank will become a pool of potential job applicants for all three casinos. Those attending the forum also will receive a listing of the types of jobs available at each casino and an overview of the qualifications required for each job. The Michigan Gaming Control Board also will have a display booth set up to provide information about licensing requirements and to identify which jobs will require state licenses.

Information will be available about a variety of jobs, including accounting jobs, dealers, table game operators, slot technicians and floor staff, hotel front desk, hotel housekeeping, engineering and maintenance, cage workers and cashiers, food and beverage services, security and surveillance, and marketing and player development.

Prospective employees will learn about employment qualifications, licensing requirements, pay scales, working conditions, fringe benefits, and the hiring timetable and recruiting process.
