The Star's centerpiece story on jobs, written by staffer Sean Driscoll, paints a clear picture regarding local job opportunities in four counties near Rockford. The headline says it all quite bluntly — "Health care is where the most job openings are".
The centerpiece includes a nice breakout package about the industries in which opportunities exist. The logos for each add some much-needed punch to the page.
The entire package is one big content promtion to the story inside.
The main photo by staff photographer Max Gersh shows a man practicing driving skills at a local college's truck driver training facility.
Nice page.
