NEW YORK -- There was a big turnout Wednesday for the MTA job fair.

The line wrapped around the block for people heading to the pop-up event at Grand Central Terminal.

The agency is recruiting for thousands of jobs.

"We're thrilled that so many people are interested in working with us. We have a lot of jobs to fill. Remember, coming out of COVID, there was a big shortage of workforce. We've mostly come back, but we still have a lot of jobs to fill," MTA CEO Janno Lieber said.

Job seekers were able to sit down with recruiters from multiple agencies to discuss a range of employment opportunities.
