Update Thursday 6 p.m.:
Chatham, VA – There was proof Thursday on the Southside of how many people are looking for jobs.
Doll manufacturer MyTwinn, located in Blairs, held a job fair at the Community Center in Chatham.
They're looking to hire about 55 to 90 seasonal workers for their busiest time of the year - the holiday season.
Before the job fair even started, the line was wrapped around the building with people ready to apply.
A spokeswoman for the Danville-Pittylvania County Chamber of Commerce says a seasonal position can be a great place to start for a job seeker.
"When you're looking for a full time job, if you have a lag in your resume of time that you've not worked, it doesn't really look good to employers, so seasonal job is a good way to fill that gap," said Kate Farmer.
Farmer also says, depending on how well MyTwinn does, they may be able to hire some seasonal workers for full-time positions.
