Sharpening swords – Bitterroot Job Service expands to provide cutting edge business, employment services
Bitterroot Job Service http://wsd.dli.mt.gov/local/hamilton/ recently tore down a wall while expanding its Hamilton facility. And according to manager Patti Furniss, that’s not the only wall that’s come down for Ravalli County residents seeking to hire or be hired.
“We have a lot of latitude with how we provide services,” Furniss said. “And our goal is to provide seamless services to potential employees as well as to the entire business community.”
In her seventh year running the local Job Service, Furniss said the demand for services has increased steadily as the valley has attracted a more talented work force. And as more skilled people compete for the few good jobs available locally, the need for training has become a greater priority.
“I continue to be impressed with the quality of our job seekers,” she said. “But unfortunately the competition is really tight – people want to live and work here because of the quality of life. We have all the jobs people from other places are used to – we just don’t have very many.”
