Workforce Solutions
Almost without exception, businesses cite North Carolina’s high quality workforce as a key factor in their decisions to locate or expand in the state.
North Carolina provides a variety of services to help people find jobs and achieve their career goals. Our statewide workforce system also connects businesses with skilled job seekers.
UPDATE: The N.C. Department of Commerce is prepared to support individuals with all the resources available as the extended federal unemployment benefits program ends on June 29, 2013. The Department is gearing up its staff and programs to assist individuals in getting the services and training they need to get back to work. DWS is actively working with state and local business partners to coordinate services and create opportunities for job seekers needing assistance. Learn more.
