The Camden Public Library is pleased to host an informational event for job seekers in Knox County. Kevin Connors, CareerCenter Consultant for the Maine Department of Labor (MDOL), and Richard Sterrs, Business Services Representative for Goodwill Workforce Solutions, will present the resources and job-related training opportunities available to area job seekers. There will be two sessions of the presentation: Monday, May 18, 1:00 p.m. to 2:00 pm; and Thursday, May 21, 6:00 pm to 7:00 pm. All are welcome!
Kevin and Richard will explain the network of workforce readiness professionals that support job seekers and employers throughout the county, region, and state. Participants will learn about the various Federal and State training grants that help job seekers obtain the skills and knowledge they need for jobs now and in the future.
