The site provided resources for jobseekers across Martin, St. Lucie and Indian River Counties since last fall, when CareerSource offices in Stuart and Vero Beach closed as part of a regional restructuring plan.
The plan included moving from Avenue Q into a larger, more modern location at the Renaissance Business Park on Okeechobee Road. After months of delays, the new location will be open beginning Monday, July 28 at 8 a.m.
After Thursday, CareerSource Research Coast will operate without a physical location for 10 days.
CareerSource’s marketing director, Mitch Kloorfain, said services will still be available through their website and via telephone at 1-866-482-4473.
“We just want the job seekers to know -- and the businesses -- that they will still have whatever supports they need during the time that we're closed,” Kloorfain told WPTV.
Satellite offices will also start operating on July 28 in Martin and Indian River counties on Indian River State College campuses. Services will be available at those locations by appointment only.
