MADISON, WI (WRN) – If you’re looking for a new job in the new year, the state has some excellent resources on hand to help you out.
Amy Hansmann with the state Bureau of Job Service says there are more jobs available than people to fill them, and that’s an excellent starting point for anyone looking to get a better career.
“Literally thousands of opportunities available as well as resources that can help you be a well-informed job seeker.”
Hansmann says the Job Center of Wisconsin offers up access to up to date labor market information that can help direct you to improve your position in your current job.
“Maybe you want to negotiate a little bit higher wage? If I complete this training, what can I expect for a starting wage for a new type of position?”
She says the Job Center of Wisconsin website can help you find a position you might not have known you were qualified for, just by using the skills you already have.
“You can do a skills match, and it will run a quick job search to see what sort of position is out there.”
The state’s Job Center offers up assistance in writing resumes, finding a new position, and finding out if the skills you have might get you a job you weren’t expecting.
