On Wednesday, U.P Michigan Works! is hosting a hiring event from 1 to 3 p.m. in its office at 1498 O’Dovero Drive.

Job seekers are invited to join U.P. Michigan Works! at this upcoming hiring event for the Michigan Department of Corrections. This free event is an opportunity for talented job hunters to meet representatives from the MDOC, discuss their opportunities, and make a great first impression.

“The Department of Corrections fills a critical role in our communities,” said Tim Hyde, Workforce Services Manager with U.P. Michigan Works! “We have a great opportunity for you to learn directly from representatives from the department about the open positions and options available to you.”

Interested job seekers are encouraged to bring a current resume and dress professionally at this event. U.P. Michigan Works! will be available before the event to help job seekers prepare for interviews and refine their resumes. Please make an appointment by calling 1-800-285-WORK (9675).

Other services, including job search assistance and career coaching, are also available. Learn more about these services, and more focused programs, by calling your local U.P. Michigan Works! office at the number above.

Job seekers who don’t have a resume can ask Michigan Works! to help them create one. For more information about this event or other programs and services, call 1-800-285-WORK (9675).
