Business
The New Mexico Department of Workforce Solutions is here to assist your business with the growth and development of your current and future workforce. WorkKeys deals with the foundational skills required by all jobs, such as reading, mathematics, and locating information.
Once applicants complete the WorkKeys assessments, the skill level results can be used along with a resume, interview, company test, and other company hiring criteria to help you make the best choice. Each individual that takes the WorkKeys three core assessments qualifies for a Career Readiness Certificate, a portable credential that confirms the workplace skills possessed by that individual.
By using WorkKeys, you can:
- Assess skill level requirements for specific jobs
- Evaluate skill levels of potential applicants
- Evaluate the skill levels of current employees for company advancement opportunities
