CareerLink - Temporary Closing for Renovations



PA CareerLink® Suburban Station to temporarily close for renovations from June 20, 2014 to October 1, 2014

Philadelphia Works, the city's lead workforce development organization, will temporarily close its PA CareerLink® Suburban Station Center, located on the 2nd floor at 1617 JFK Boulevard.  From June 20, 2014 to approximately October 1, 2014, the center will be renovated to better serve its customers. The temporary closing will result in a new office design that will increase the computer lab area and provide better space for job fairs and recruitment activities.

During the renovation, Suburban Station customers may visit any location but are encouraged to utilize the PA CareerLink® North Philadelphia location at 990 Spring Garden Street. This location is the closest center (approximately 1.3 miles from Suburban Station) and easily accessible via public transportation (Market-Frankford Line: 8 minute ride and 10 minute walk; 23 Bus Line: 5 minute ride and 2 minute walk and Broad Street Subway: 5 minute ride and 5 minute walk).

Current staff at the Suburban Station location will remain employed and be temporarily re-assigned to one of the three other locations to accommodate redirected traffic. 

Those locations are:
  
North Philadelphia
990 Spring Garden Street
Philadelphia, PA 19123
Phone: 215-560-5465   

Northeast Philadelphia
3210 Red Lion Road

Phone: 215-281-1038

Job seekers are also encouraged to utilize PA CareerLink®  online services during this time, available at  http://www.philaworks.org/job-seekers/welcome. Individuals can access the Internet for free at public libraries and keyspots locations across the city. More information on keyspots locations can be found at https://www.phillykeyspots.org
