As the Trump administration initiates significant layoffs, New York Governor Kathy Hochul sees an opportunity to fill state job vacancies. Inviting federal employees, particularly those affected by the upheaval from Elon Musk's Department of Government Efficiency, Hochul highlighted New York's need for skilled labor, stating it would honor federal workers who wish to join the state. The recruitment effort comes as New York wrestles with over 7,000 unfilled public sector jobs, countering the federal government's layoffs with an outreach campaign designed to attract experienced professionals to New York's workforce.
Gov. Kathy Hochul invited federal employees affected by layoffs to apply for public-sector jobs in New York, leveraging labor market needs.
She emphasized New York's need for federal workers by stating, 'The federal government might say You’re fired,' but here in New York, we say You're hired.'
The recruitment drive aims to fill over 7,000 unfilled positions in New York state and recruit talent from the federal sector.
