Job 1 and Orleans Youth Career Center

After you’ve registered with HiRE, you may want to meet with a career counselor at one of Louisiana Workforce Commission’s Business & Career Solutions Centers.  In New Orleans, that would be Job 1, located at 3400 Tulane Ave. in the Goodwill building.  The counselors can help you with your job search and unemployment benefits processes and they can help you find training opportunities that fit your interests.  Sometimes they can even help pay for tuition, materials costs, transportation, daycare, etc.  Click below to see a list of some of their services.
