July 15, 200917 yr http://florida.marlins.mlb.com/news/press_releases/press_release.jsp?ymd=20090713&content_id=5860526&vkey=pr_fla&fext=.jsp&c_id=fla MIAMI, FL -- The Marlins announced today that the Hunt/Moss, A Joint Venture, construction manager for the new Marlins Ballpark, has posted an Employment Interest Questionnaire online for workers seeking potential employment during the ballpark's 33-month construction period. The form can be accessed and filled out at: www.huntmossjv.com. It is available in English and Spanish. The online system will expedite the process of getting information from interested workers into a database that subcontractors can use to sort and catalog potential workers according to their construction trade, skill set and area of residence. Hunt/Moss has estimated a total of approximately 5,000 individual workers will play a role in the construction. The Marlins have committed that at least 50 percent of jobs will go to Miami-Dade County residents and that 20 percent of the local jobs will go to residents of the City of Miami. The online process was established in lieu of handing out additional questionnaires at the site of the future ballpark. Distribution of an initial questionnaire last week drew more than 6,000 people to the Little Havana site in less than 24 hours. "The outpouring of interest last week clearly demonstrates this is an important project that will provide much needed jobs during these difficult times," said Marlins President David Samson. "We look forward to subcontractors beginning work the next several weeks." It would be great if someone on this forum could get a job working on the ballpark and gives us first hand updates on it!
