Growing the region’s talent pipeline is a fundamental strategy of every local workforce development board. Employ Milwaukee works collaboratively with our service and training partners and the Coordination Council members to continually connect with job seekers and individuals to share training program and employment opportunities. Through our Mobile Workforce Connections staff, our reach into communities has expanded by connecting with individuals and employers who were not previously engaged in the workforce system. Once connected to the Job Center of Wisconsin and local programming, job seekers can be recruited and pre-screened for referral to training programs and employer hiring events.

Job ready candidates are informed of and invited to hiring events where employers and staffing agencies interview candidates who possess required skills or work experience. Job seekers pursuing their first job or next employment opportunity are recruited for events where employers are seeking dependable, team-oriented and trainable individuals who are committed to acquiring work experience or new skill sets.
