Apply to Cambridge Works to Get Paid Job Experience!

Cambridge Works, the City of Cambridge's transitional jobs program, is recruiting! The program serves Cambridge residents between the ages of 18-35 who have difficulty finding full-time jobs due to limited work experience, a gap in their work history, legal challenges, or personal issues. The next cycle of the program will begin in mid-September 2024.

To apply to the program, fill out the Cambridge Works online application.

Cambridge Works provides participants with:

  • A 3-month, paid temporary job placement at a local organization
  • Professional development classes focused on resume and cover letter writing, interview preparation, financial literacy, communication skills, and goal-setting
  • Support from a case manager
  • Job search support to find full-time employment
