WorkSource Oregon

“I've had roles that made me learn & grow as a workforce development professional and as a person. I've had opportunities that encourage being adaptable & collaborative, creating a positive work environment. My work has included marketing; recruitment assistance to businesses & job candidates by sourcing of employees in priority industries; expertise in economic & labor trends; & unemployment insurance. My 11 years at WorkSource Oregon have been the most challenging and yet the most rewarding. ”

“I love working in WorkSource Oregon because it supports businesses through varied resources such as helping with recruitment, on-the-job training or workshare programs. We help job seekers face the challenges of job search by providing individualized services and meeting each one's need. WorkSource Oregon is an inclusive agency where everyone is valued – both employers, customers and staff. Helping Oregonians to achieve their business and employment dreams is the major goal of the agency.”

“After completing a Masters Degree in Clinical Immunology, it was difficult to land a role specific to my degree. WorkSource Oregon directed me to an opportunity in a start-up diagnostic laboratory. I was able to build my career and learn new skills, train other laboratory staff, and make great connections with people I am still in touch with even years later. The role gave me an extra advantage when it came to applying for jobs when I moved overseas and landed my dream role. Thanks WorkSource! ”
