South Dakota has released another in a series of “Freedom Works Here” nationwide workforce recruitment ads.
The “On the Job” ad features Governor Kristi Noem as a welder inviting workers to move to South Dakota. In the ad, Noem highlights South Dakota’s acceptance of most out-of-state professional licenses and apprenticeship programs. She also mentions that South Dakota is investing in scholarships to help ease financial burden and get folks trained and on the job.
Noem says so far 287 million people have seen the ads and over 3000 have gone through the process of applying. She says more than 500 are in the final stages of moving to the state and have been sent a “Freedom Works Here” South Dakota license plate.
