Go Forward project offers survey

The Generator, a program of Go Forward Pine Bluff, has partnered with the Center on Rural Innovation for a project to better understand needs in rural communities for tech talent, according to the Pine Bluff Regional Chamber of Commerce newsletter.

Interested participants are asked to take a brief survey on digital jobs in Pine Bluff/Jefferson County. The information will be used in helping build a better local talent pool more equipped to meet the business community’s current and future hiring needs.

The survey is available at https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLScfila7sPi06XjYFWjDh0f45lk2gQ9B6fUjis0nVogZuG7y2A/viewform.
