    Looking for work now? Our regional businesses and industries are looking for job seekers who meet their immediate and longer-term employment needs. Tapping into Employment Express Services will help to identify and match your skills to the employer’s needs in the shortest timeframe possible.

  • Career Advancement
    Career Advancement services provide you with opportunities to explore ways to use your current skills in new ways or develop new skills to move up the career ladder. Matching your abilities with employer expectations is a great way to get an even better job, make higher wages, or find work that is best suited to your skills.

  • Career Exploration
    Need some help to determine which career is best for you? Employers are in the business of finding people with the skills and interests to do the job. With Career Exploration Services, you can determine which job is right for you, how to find it and how to get hired.

  • Career Maintenance
    Seasonal employment is part of the make-up of our regional economy. These jobs often provide temporary lay-offs to workers who are required to register for work to obtain Unemployment Insurance Benefits. The Career Maintenance Services are available to job seekers who must register for work to obtain unemployment benefits and who are expecting to return to their previous job within a short period of time. Career Maintenance Services can also assist workers who are seeking different employment.
