LOOKING FOR WORK

Our mission is to provide the link between job seeker and employer. But the Milwaukee Area Workforce Investment Board is much more than a source for job listings. We can provide the resources to become job-ready for those who are facing significant barriers to employment. You may need to update your skills to keep pace with today’s job market. Or you may need guidance with resume writing, interviewing and job search preparation.

If you are serious about looking for permanent, full time work, a visit to a Job Center is the way to start. Here you will find many resources to help you in your job search. Depending on eligibility requirements, we can connect you to federally funded programs that match your needs. Or if you are trying to make a change to a more in-demand career you can find the latest labor market data to chart your course to new employment. But it starts with a visit to a Job Center.

If you or someone you know is having trouble finding a job because English is not your or their primary language, we can provide a referral to organizations in our community that can be of help. There are eligibility requirements that can be explained to you. We can link individuals to services in the languages spoken by Milwaukee County jobseekers of Eastern European, Russian, African, Southeast Asian, Middle Eastern and Latin American descent.
