Your employment woes are solved, Brooklyn!
The Barclays Center will create approximately 105 full-time jobs and about 1901 part-time jobs to New York City residents, according to a Forest City Ratner representative who gave a presentation to Community Board 6 on Monday night.
...The part-time jobs will be event driven, so the number of employees working at any given week will fluctuate.
David Anderson, AEG's vice president of Event and Guest Services, said that the biggest number of part-timers that will work at any event, like a playoff game, will be 800. And during other regular season games or concerts that number will be less than 800.
Cotton said that employing Brooklynites will be the arena’s hiring priority.
