Good Morning, Job Seekers — and Happy National Trail Mix Day!
Much like a mix of nuts, dried fruit, and chocolate coming together for a great snack, this week’s HotJobs list is a blend of opportunities across Central Iowa!
While our in‑office HotJobs list includes a second page, remember that the list isn’t meant to be the end‑all, be‑all of your job search. It’s a tool to spark ideas, highlight companies to explore, and inspire you to discover career paths you may not have considered before.
Be sure to like and follow the IowaWORKS page — we rarely duplicate companies, and older lists (all available on our page) may still have active openings. We also post additional job opportunities throughout the week.
If your company would like to be included in the HotJobs list or featured on our page, just reach out and ask for Michelle or Frank at the IowaWORKS office.
Your IowaWORKS team has Career Planners ready to help with résumés, interview preparation, and career searches. We also offer educational resources and programs through our CareerBridge Team for Adult and Dislocated Workers. And if you need boots, tools, or equipment to start a new job, Ticket to Work may be able to help.
Use our referral system for a quick response: https://ow.ly/jPX550ZxJys
Have a great week, good luck in your search, and remember — we’re here to assist you every step of the way.
