Orientation sessions for Pennsylvania CareerLink employment services are now available in Pottstown one Friday each month at YWCA Tri-County Area, 300 King Street, beginning Friday, September 22.
The Welcome Aboard sessions provide an overview of all available services through CareerLink, a one-stop workforce assistance organization. Attending the Welcome Aboard orientation is a required first step in obtaining employment-related services through CareerLink.
In addition to the overview of CareerLink services, CareerLink staff will offer a preliminary assessment with each client to review individual needs and how CareerLink services may help.
