Muhlenberg Residents land jobs in neighboring county through Muhlenberg Job Corps

When Brian Hancock, Muhlenberg BCL, invited Adam Lynch, Staff Recruiter for Perdue Farms for a tour neither knew what to expect. Adam Lynch said that he had no idea of how top notch the Muhlenberg campus was until his tour on April 3rd. Adam then returned the request and invited Muhlenberg staff to visit the Perdue Farms facility in Beaver Dam, KY, on April 17th. Kayla Horn, Work Base Coordinator for Muhlenberg Job Corps, stated that the facility was extremely clean and extremely efficient. These two meetings led both parties to know there was some work to be done together for several years. May 7th Perdue Farms hired four Muhlenberg Job Corps students with three of those students being local Muhlenberg residents. Kayla, Brian and Adam are already working on being able to prepare some of the job corps students in the welding department for possible future position in maintenance for Perdue Farms.
