Bronx (Fordham Rd), West Farms, and Hunts Point Workforce Career Centers are currently closed, but have launched virtual services to help job seekers during this time. Workforce1 helps New Yorkers prepare for and connect to jobs across New York City’s five boroughs in every sector of the economy.
Through their Virtual Workforce1 Career Center system, the career centers can connect candidates via web or phone to one-on-one help from professionals, including help with the following:
- Job Opportunities
- Individual Career Advice
- Resume & Interview Preparation
All of the services are provided at no cost and do not require in-person visits. Candidates can click on the following link and someone from the Bronx Workforce1 team will follow up with you: Bronx Workforce1 Career Center Virtual Connection.
For services over the phone, candidates should call 718-960-2458 and select Option 2.
Workforce1 is also currently offering a free virtual interview workshop for candidates who may need to brush up on their interview skills. All candidates must have access to a computer or a phone to participate in the workshop, which will identify what employers are looking for during an interview, and allow participants to practice responses to commonly-asked interview questions.
The workshop is for job seekers who have a resume, and who demonstrate inexperience in going to interviews, or who have been repeatedly unsuccessful during recent interviews. Sign up here.
