MassHire Franklin Hampshire Career Center provides employment and training services to military Veterans and eligible spouses. Veterans and eligible spouses, are identified at point of entry, informed of their entitlement to priority of service, and given an opportunity to take full advantage of the full array of employment, training, and placement services under priority of service.

Depending on the type of service priority of service means that Veterans and eligible spouses receive services earlier in time, or instead of, non-Veteran customers; e.g. workshop/seminar participation, skill assessment/testing, job search/application assistance, training access, etc.

Priority of Service does not include Unemployment Insurance (UI) Program Walk-in Assistance.  Service is provided on a first come first serve basis.

Veterans are offered a full range of no-cost Career Center services:

  • Job Search Assistance
  • Unemployment Information
  • Disability Services
  • Workshops
  • Labor Market Information
  • Community Resources
  • Employer Events
  • Training Programs
  • And much more…

Comprehensive employment plans are developed for those Veterans experiencing significant difficulty securing a job, and include an assessment, development of a case plan, provision of individualized Career Services, and follow-up. Veterans Employment Representative Michael Anderson is available to assist these Veterans, and can be reached at: 413.774.4361, ext. 315, or manderson@masshirefhcareers.org
