A monthly resource for job leads, training opportunities, and career advancement

Are you looking for a stable and rewarding career path? Consider exploring Philadelphia's Recovery Occupations! These jobs have shown minimal negative impact from the pandemic and are projected to continue growing through 2027. Additionally, they pay at least $15 per hour, providing a reliable income.

One of the great things about Recovery Occupations is that they often don't require a four-year degree. They are typically middle-skill or low-skill entry points into various career paths, with opportunities for advancement and career growth. Our catalog provides detailed information on each Recovery Occupation, including wages, required skills and certifications, and top employers in the Philadelphia area.

This edition of Hired! is packed full of opportunities that link directly to the recovery occupations in Philly. Be sure to check out every link to get the full view of how PA CareerLink® Philadelphia is supporting residents with stable and sustainable employment.
