Madison Approach Staffing Celebrates 30 Years with “30 Kickstarts” Campaign with Westhab.
We turned 30 in 2018 and we still remember what it’s like starting out. It takes hard work, a little luck, and some help along the way. So to celebrate we are providing free professional help to 30 Westhab clients of all ages and experience level. Westhab job seekers can apply by reviewing the list below and choosing one item you feel will help you and submit within the short form to the right. Our panel will review and choose 30 people to get a kickstart in a variety of ways—skills upgrade, resume consultation, transportation assistance, work/life balance, financial advice, tools for work, and even professional makeovers—anything that will help launch you on a path to success.
