Description
With over 16,000 employees across the region, King County is a large employer of choice that can design and promote high-quality green career pathways for recruitment and outreach. King County will create a dedicated “Green Jobs” category on its public-facing job board to highlight and promote already established green career pathway positions. This will include a user-friendly digital interface for easy access and navigation and job alerts to attract qualified candidates. Additionally, the County will expand its “application clinic” model to connect skilled job seekers with department recruiters, particularly those from local training and pre-apprenticeship programs. These actions will support and reinforce a climate informed lens to ongoing workforce development efforts across the County while reinforcing community-based connections between job seekers from frontline communities and King County departments seeking talent.
