FireKeepers Casino Hotel has increased wages and is offering a $500 sign-on bonus to most positions ahead of June 12th job fair.

FireKeepers for its part is offering a sweet incentive to entice those hesitant to return to the workforce. The casino and hotel were recently recognized as being a top-rated employer.
