Workforce

The Southwest Indiana region continues to be one of the fastest growing regions in Indiana and you'll hear one common theme — workforce.  It’s all about people, and with thousands of bright minds graduating from local universities and relocating to the area each year, Southwest Indiana's supply of unmatched employee talent is certainly no accident.  

The Chamber has an established partnership with WorkOne Southwest and utilizes a shared staff member who meets with local businesses to discuss their workforce needs and offer solutions by reviewing WorkOne’s toolkit of employer services.  

 

	Indiana’s WorkOne offices are the heart of the workforce development system.  There are many business services offered through WorkOne Southwest for employers, such as candidate searches, recruitment services, labor market information, training grant opportunities, worker layoff assistance, and more.
	IndianaCAREERConnect.com, powered by WorkOne, is a valuable resource for individuals and employers.  Businesses can utilize this site to find qualified candidates, post job openings, research candidate trends and obtain labor market information.
	Indiana INTERNnet is your “one-stop shop” for interns and internships. This site is where high school and college students connect with Indiana employers for valuable internship experiences. It's free, it's easy, and it's a win-win for Indiana students and employers.
