How can we Keep and Create Jobs

Welcome to the Jobs Campaign for North Carolina! If you want to know how to keep and create jobs in our state, we believe that you need to hear from the job providers! We want the best ideas from NC businesses – large and small – that will help stabilize and boost our economy in the short term and provide a more positive jobs environment over the long haul. We want to make sure NC is never a top-10 unemployment state again! Your best “jobs ideas” will help provide meaningful input to state officials and lawmakers. NC businesses, let us hear from you! In short, “THINK Jobs!”
