Throughout the Area --- WorkSource works. That's what a new study is showing.

The Employment Security Department finds that people using the state's WorkSource system were up to 37% more likely to land a job in a six-month period than those who don't. We talked to our own Yakima WorkSource director. He's glad to see the numbers are confirming the program's success. "The number one things is really preparing people for their job. And of course we do a lot of resume writing classes, interview technique classes, even doing some job search," South Central WorkSource Area Director, Ignacio Marquez tells Action News.

WorkSource can help you find work. But there are even classes on how to keep your current job. Take advantage of the services by stopping in your local WorkSource.
