Dozens of Camden residents interviewed Tuesday for jobs at Holtec International as the company makes efforts to become one of the largest employers in the city.
Holtec, a company that designs equipment for power plants, held interviews at the Camden County One-Stop Career Center for labor, welding, machinist, and technician jobs. About 40 people interviewed, and they were predominantly Camden residents, said Jack Johnson, a human resources manager for Holtec.
The energy company, which won $260 million in tax credits to move from Evesham, began its transition earlier this year to its city campus, located on the Delaware River in south Camden.
Johnson said in an interview Tuesday that he was unsure how many of the applicants would receive job offers. Those who do get hired will likely start within the next month.
