Meet Phil

Indiana - Meet Phil

Workforce Success Story Submitted By: WorkOne

Workforce Challenge

Phil began his maintenance career 41 years ago, and had worked with the same employer ever since. Unfortunately, his company closed and Phil was without employment.

Workforce Solution

Phil attended a WorkOne Rapid Response event held at his former employer. Phil heard a quote at that meeting that helped him decide what he needed to do. That quote was: “If it’s to be, it’s up to me."

Phil began moving forward with his re-employment plan. He attended nearly every workshop that was offered to him at WorkOne Eastern Indiana. These included Resume, Interviewing, Jobs after 40, computer skills, and Earn While You Learn, which prepares workers for On the Job training.

Outcomes & Benefits

Through his hard work and faith, Phil interviewed and was selected as a maintenance worker for Howard Precision Products. Through the WorkOne On-the Job Training program, Phil was able to showcase his existing skills while also learning the skills that were needed at his new employer.

Congratulations Phil and thank you to Harold Precision Products. You are an important part of the economic success of our Region 6 in Indiana.
