Morris County Announces Launch of the “Connect to Morris 2.0” Job Platform

On Tuesday, March 19, Morris County announced the launch of “Connect to Morris 2.0,” a revitalized online job platform that creates opportunities for area employers to connect with local talent for their hiring needs. The innovative online portal is designed to simplify the hiring process while providing numerous resources to support employers, job seekers, students, educational institutions, and nonprofits.

The platform is designed to address talent gaps identified through the employer-focused Morris@Work initiative by providing an expanded resource that offers services to nonprofits, jobseekers, and students, as well as education institutions.

The development of Connect to Morris 2.0 is a result of a collaborative effort between private and public sector entities including the Morris County Economic Development Corporation, the Northwest New Jersey Workforce Development Board, and the MCEDAlliance.

Connect to Morris offers a variety of applications, including:

  • Job searches by title or location, with integration from the National Labor Exchange (NLx).
  • Access to local resources, such as featured employers, employer best practices, industry trends, training programs, career outlooks, and assessment tools.
  • The ability for employers to post job opportunities and internships.
  • Nonprofit organizations can post volunteer opportunities, internships, and open positions.
  • Educational institutions can share upcoming training programs on the events calendar.
