Workforce Solutions East Texas to Re-Open Centers Fully to the Public
No Appointment Needed Starting June 14

Workforce Solutions East Texas (WSET) is pleased to announce its workforce centers will fully open to the public and no longer require an appointment starting on June 14. WSET has primarily served clients virtually throughout COVID-19 and began offering in-person services by appointment in June 2020. The centers will be open Monday – Friday, from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. The Longview Workforce Center has moved recently and is temporarily operating in our Mobile Workforce Center parked at the Kilgore College-Longview campus.
"Our appointment calendars have been full, and job seekers are getting back to work," said WSET Center Director Mary Ann Rojas. "We are grateful to our community for supporting us throughout the year and so thankful to be able to turn the locks, open the doors, and greet our customers at 8 a.m. on June 14th. "
"East Texas has been through a brutal 2020 of COVID. Right now, East Texas employees need training, skills, and child care. East Texas employers need people who are ready to work. We can provide the first. Our friends and neighbors are the second. Together we can rebuild our economy. Whether you want a new job or a stronger career, join us to launch a new and better 2021," said WSET Executive Director Doug Shryock.
