Finding workers is a special challenge for employers across America, including here in Northern Colorado. The Chamber has been working with other partners to provide information and tools you can use in your recruitment efforts.
Take a look at www.NoCoTalent2.com where you’ll find some useful resources including 11 downloadable PDFs about various aspects of living in Larimer County.
You’ll also find information about training grants, the workforce center, enterprise zone tax credits, workshops, area training and education organizations, and more.
Another tool to look into is the talent identification tool. Through the work of our area’s Talent 2.0 plan, Larimer County has contracted for a web-based tool that helps employers identify where talent is located around the country by job type. Basically, plug in the kind of job you’re trying to fill and a heat-map appears with locations where a surplus of workers in that profession reside. It’s a way of helping to refine your recruitment efforts. If you are interested in participating, contact Amanda Repella at Larimer County at [email protected].
