How Do I Hire a Job Corps Graduate?

If you are an employer seeking well-trained, entry-level employees for your business, Job Corps may be the ideal place to find them. Job Corps students receive focused, hands-on career training, so hiring Job Corps graduates can provide your business with many unique benefits, including:

  • A constant source of new employees. Because Job Corps students create their own training timeline, the program graduates employee candidates all year long.
  • Motivated employee candidates. Learning a good work ethic is part of every Job Corps student's training, and graduates are available to work at all times of the year.
  • Training tailored to your company's needs. Establishing a training partnership can allow Job Corps to teach the specific skills your company requires of employees.
  • Help in the selection process. When you need skilled employees, Job Corps can screen the eligible students to give you the best possible candidates.
  • Tax benefits. Many employers receive tax credit upon hiring Job Corps graduates by taking advantage of the Work Opportunity Tax Credit Program.
