Being in tech, a layoff or two is bound to happen. I'm so lucky that I've always had the Everett Unemployment/Worksource office, in my backyard! They always provide a safe/clean space, for people to receive unemployment information, no matter what industry you've been in or are wanting to transition to! They even have someone onsite, that can help with military members. It's all quite inclusive. This is all thanks to their WONDERFUL staff members!!! They may not know all the answers, but they'll find a way to help yah! read more

This place helps in my job search and hopefully a place that helps lead to gainful employment. With that being said, the staff are very helpful and friendly. There are adequate handouts and computers. Awesome resource. read more

One of the few things worse than being unemployed is getting hit up to pay to get help to get re-employed. Don't fall for it! Instead, for FREE, at WorkSource, business-savvy job counselors* offer advice on finding out the right dream (or filler) job for you.... Classes and one-on-one assistance on resumes, interviewing and more. Computers, phones, fax, paper for resumes.... It's your one-stop-career-shop. *Hey, where else did all those company recruiters and HR folks go? All that, in the coolest building in Everett, the train station (take the elevator to the 3rd Floor). read more

WorkSource Everett - Worksource is on the 3rd floor of the Everett train station; elevator up. - Career Counseling Near Me - Everett, Washington

Only recommend coming here to keep your benefits. I was made to feel like a loser at my orientation appointment because I don't have a degree. I was asked, "don't you think your job search would be more successful if you had more education?" It was clear the person assigned to me had no idea what he was doing and tried making me come into the office multiple times within two weeks for 'work search activities' when I know that only one workshop is required. I was laid off and it costs money to drive there. So I had to fight him to do my work search at home online. I waited 20 mins for my appointment and then was with him for more than an hour. He didn't show me any resources that are available but instead spent the entire time asking me questions off a paper and making me feel like i was doing something wrong with every answer. read more

1. They required me, a resident of Edmonds, to attend their orientation here, in Everett. This is not convenient, especially when there is (or used to be, at least) a Worksource location in the Lynnwood/MLT area. 2. There is almost no parking available around this location. The park-and-rides across the street are always full with commuters' cars, and the lots by the office are limited to 2 hours (and most of their sessions are longer than that). 3. I agreed to allow my information to be shared with their "partners," and now I get more spam than I've seen in years. I even got an email with a subject like "new job postings" but the email was empty. I would recommend NOT allowing them to share your information. 4. Their Resume & Communication class is so generic that it is practically worthless. Every answer to every question seems to be "it depends." If that's the case, then offer specific classes for specific industries instead of offering essentially no information at all. read more

Worksource can be for more than just getting a new job. There are training programs available and other types of assistance. Your team at AT&T had our work sent offshore to Eastern Europe so we are eligible for training under the Trade Act Assistance program. Not every Worksource office handles it so Everett or Redmond are the choices for Lynnwood or the "Upper Eastside". I have been coming in here quite frequently while arranging funding for my training program - an MBA in IT Management. Worksource is in the Everett Train Station. Beware of parking! If you haven't been here before, you need to try and find the park and ride lot on the east side of the train tracks. There is always parking there, but you take your chances on the west side of the Worksource. It is usually quite a hike across the parking lot, over the sky bridge and back back to the train station, but you get your exercise for the day. read more

In my experience people that come to me have difficulty writing or just don't know how to verbalize what they do and need help. I provide a service to assist people and give them the voice that will put them on the road to gainful employment. Marquis read more

Everyone is very helpful, kind, and compassionate. I've had a lot of good things happen because everyone has been so helpful and they check on me often to make sure I'm okay and if things are going well. I would definitely recommend this place if you're needing job training, help with housing, resume writing, or anything related to just helping you get back on your feet. read more

I was interested to at least see how WorkSource operates, so I walked in prepared. Perhaps others had better experiences, but it might not be the best resource for everyone. I found the service really unprofessional, and their advice was mostly unhelpful. I've been formerly employed by two large software companies, so I know what I'm doing for the most part. I'm presently just looking for something temporary. The person who was supposed to be helping me, I knew right away, knew much less than I did. Apart from the lack of professionalism I found this person lacked discretion. It's a joke. I wish I had better things to say. I saw a bunch of younger people there, and I hope it either works out for them or that they can somehow get in contact with better resources or guidance. read more
