Manhattan —
The lines were a lot longer than usual outside the latest job fair held by Women For Hire. There was another big difference: this time, men were among the crowd.
With unemployment in the city at its highest levels in 16 years, the decade-old non-profit group allowed men to attend a Women For Hire job fair. “I’m thankful that they let us come here,” said Edwin Burgos, one of the many job seekers who lined up on Seventh Avenue on a recent cold February day.
