Tamara Scott lost her job in March of 2010, "By Christmas I was scared that I would never find even a decent job ever again. I was sending out 10 to 20 resumes a week, going to job fairs and filling out applications in person with no results." With help from Worksource Oregon she received her National Career Readiness Certificate and almost exactly one year after losing her job, she was hired by a natural resources consultant in Portland. http://www.worksourceoregon.org/

  • Thanks for this post. The real truth of the matter is that all the good jobs are gone in the Portland area. I tried to depend on Worksource and they did not give a damn and considered me nothing but a number of there in Tualatin. I went to all of their workshops and they did them real fast and there were thosands there. I went to two of their job fairs and there were 6000-10000 people there for (4) jobs. Things are super bad and there is nothing in Portland and no one cares at all about you.
