Career coach helps boost area employment
0225career4
The Georgia Mountains Regional Commission Workforce Development bus sits Tuesday morning at the Spout Springs Library in Flowery Branch to help area residents search and apply for jobs, write resumés and cover letters or help discover their career interests.
With snow on the ground and a chill in the air, there wasn’t a rush on the Georgia Mountains Regional Commission’s Workforce Development Career Coach as it opened its doors Tuesday morning in Flowery Branch. But business has been otherwise brisk for the employment-focused operation, as the agency’s two coaches have made their way throughout the GMRC’s 13 Northeast Georgia counties, including Hall. “Four to five days a week, we have both of them on the road,” said John Phillips, the GMRC’s workforce development director.
