Ground broken for western Kentucky career center


Ground has been broken for a new Kentucky Career Center at Murray that will provide services to job seekers and employers.


Gov. Steve Beshear's office says the state partnered with the Murray-Calloway Economic Development Corp. to build the facility at the Murray-West Industrial Park. Construction is expected to finish in February.


The state will then enter into an eight-year lease agreement that includes maintenance of the building.


The center will provide streamlined services for job seekers and business customers.


Services for job seekers will include career coaching, access to local job openings, job leads and referrals, resume services, unemployment insurance claim filing assistance and education and training opportunities.


Services for businesses include talent recruitment assistance, candidate pre-screening and assessment, coordination of job fairs and free use of conference space to conduct interviews.
