The resilience of the Latino community is inspiring. We created EmpleosLatino to help Spanish speakers find job security and connect recruiters with top talent.” - Martha de la Torre, CEO of El Clasificado dba EC Hispanic MediaLOS ANGELES, CA, UNITED STATES, February 10, 2025 /EINPresswire / -- The Latino community kicked off 2025 with a determined and enthusiastic statement: they're ready to work, grow, and seize new opportunities. On Thursday, January 30th, over 300 motivated job seekers packed into the first of many job fairs, hosted by El Clasificado-the leading Spanish-language multimedia platform-and EmpleosLatino. From warehouse roles to administrative positions, the event buzzed with possibilities and ambition.

To amplify the reach of this event, El Clasificado published 5,000 copies of EmpleosLatino magazine, distributing them throughout Orange County, ensuring both job seekers and recruiters stayed connected.

The energy was palpable. Eager candidates lined up well before the doors opened, dressed to impress and armed with résumés. "After two years of an uncertain job market, the outlook for 2025 is confident," said Luis Varela, Business Development Manager at staffing agency Helpmates.“We're hiring for roles in logistics, administration, and accounting, and we anticipate even more openings in the coming months.”

George Ramos, 25, from Santa Ana, shared his optimism:“I'm totally bilingual and open to learning new careers-whether it's construction or warehouse packaging, I'm ready.”

Companies weren't just hiring-they were building connections. Yolanda Magaña, Business Manager at KWKW 1330 AM radio, remarked, "Events like this strengthen our community ties. We're growing and looking for fresh talent, especially in sales." Carmen Campos from KWKW added, "The turnout blew us away-so many candidates came prepared and ready to dive into roles in radio.”

Martha de la Torre, CEO of El Clasificado dba EC Hispanic Media , highlighted the spirit of the event: "The resilience of the Latino community is inspiring. We created EmpleosLatino to help Spanish speakers find job security and connect recruiters with top talent. Many attendees didn't have résumés before the event, but our team helped them craft professional ones on the spot, boosting their confidence. Recruiters felt that the EmpleosLatino“Feria de Trabajo” as many Latinos call the event had an impressive turnout of high-quality candidates.”

The revamped EmpleosLatino platform is expected to launch in March and promises to make job hunting and recruiting even more seamless for bilingual, bicultural and Spanish speakers seeking employment.
