From the shock of sudden redundancy in a cost of living crisis, to the excitement of a first step on the career ladder. Hundreds answered the call from Manchester Airport at a careers fair in Wythenshawe today (May 24) - each with their own reasons for hunting a new job.
The embattled airport is currently trying to recruit its way out of the chaos seen in recent months. Huge queues and delays are being blamed on staff shortages across the airport and the companies that operate within it.
At Wythenshawe Forum, just a mile away from yet more scenes of 'carnage' that were unfolding this morning, the airport was continuing its push for extra staff ahead of the summer. Soon after doors opened at 10am, well over 400 people had already entered the building on the lookout for a new job.
