Find an office, phone number and person to ask

The guides below are shared Oregon navigation sources. The contact directory distinguishes offices physically in your county from suggested regional contacts. A county selection does not establish a job vacancy, training slot or available funding.

Talk to someone who can help you find work

WorkSource Oregon offers free job-search services. Ask for the job-seeker services team, a career coach or an employment specialist. Get help with job matching, resumes, interviews, applications and training options.

  1. Call the listed office or visit in person. WorkSource says an appointment is not required for initial help.
  2. Ask for a career coach or employment specialist. Say: I am looking for work and need help with job matching, my resume or applications.
  3. Describe the kind of work you want, your skills, transportation and scheduling needs. A resume or work history can help; ask staff what documents a particular program needs.
  4. Ask about workshops, paid training and possible work supports. Each funded program has its own eligibility and availability.

Language assistance: 833-685-0845. Ask the office about disability accommodations or remote help.

Find jobs and local career help

Start with WorkSource. Ask about local and remote services, job matching, a career coach and the original employer posting.

Resumes, interviews and career planning

Choose a job goal, compare required skills and tailor your resume to the posting. Ask about workshops and accessible application support.

Skills, GED, college and training support

Ask WorkSource about training eligibility before paying or enrolling. Check GED, English learning, community college and career-school options.

State government jobs

Use the vacancy instructions and official recruitment system. Prepare examples that show the requested skills and ask the recruiter about application accommodations.

Veteran job and apprenticeship support

Ask WorkSource about priority services and specialized veteran employment help. Check apprenticeship benefits and state recruitment preference separately.

Disability employment and work incentives

Ask about employment accommodations, vocational rehabilitation, assistive support and benefits counseling. Check the VR waitlist before assuming services can begin.

Young people and older workers

Use the program directory for youth work experience or the ODHS employment page for older-worker training. Confirm age, income, geography and current intake with the provider.

Work after prison or a criminal conviction

Ask about skills gained in custody, work preparation, pre-apprenticeship and practical barriers. Ask the employer about its actual process; a record does not produce the same result for every job.

More prison support and reentry resources

Childcare, identification and staying connected

Ask WorkSource which transportation, clothing, tools or other work supports may fit. Use the responsible agency for childcare, identification and phone or internet support.

Unemployment and rights at work

Job search, unemployment claims and workplace complaints are separate tasks. Follow the appropriate agency instructions and keep any written decision, pay records or messages.
