Last week several of our Level 3 students attended a workshop at the Upper Manhattan Workforce 1 Center about preparing for job interviews. They also applied to use Workforce 1’s job search services, which is why they have the blue cards. Way to go!
About Workforce 1:
Workforce1 is a service provided by the NYC Department of Small Business Services that prepares and connects qualified candidates to job opportunities in New York City. We make strong matches for both candidates and employers by using a unique combination of recruitment expertise, industry knowledge, and skill-building workshops to strengthen candidates’ employment prospects.
How do we do it? We develop relationships directly with businesses that are hiring, then we get a deep understanding of what they’re looking for in a candidate. We use that understanding to help you connect to the right employer – and then succeed by putting your best foot forward.
It was a good news for us!I hope some of us also can get the blue card in the future!
The first workshop was very understandable and very useful. It helped me to organize my thoughts.
