Job Description

RETURN TO THE WORKFORCE AND  JOIN THE TEAM THAT KEEPS THE “SPIRITS” OF UTAH FLOWING

The Return Utah program is a formal career reentry program, designated for Utahns desiring to re-enter the workforce after a career break. Along with a state job and traditional on-the-job training, Return Utah roles provide 16-weeks of transitional support (similar to an internship) which includes an office technology review, coaching, career development, mentorship, networking opportunities and job market readiness training.

Career break reasoning is irrelevant to hire. Program participants have taken career breaks for varied reasons including childcare, chronic illness, caring for a family member, educational pursuits, retirement, military service, volunteerism, entrepreneurship, political office, travel, etc.

Must have a career break of one year or more at the time of application

(unless the candidate is affiliated with the military in any way including as a military spouse/partner), or

Demonstrate underemployed at the time of application

and

Have prior professional/life experience in a functional area of interest

This is a Full Time Intent-to-hire opportunity. Upon completion of the Return Utah program, based on performance, participants may receive a long term offer of employment.
