YEP at CFI

YEP at CFI updated their address.

December 15 is National Cat Herder’s Day! Although the only job remotely close to cat herding is working at your local animal shelter, this holiday is not dedicated to cats. This celebration is meant for those who can manage others and themselves no matter what chaos is thrown their way. The idiom, “like herding cats,” was popularized during a Super Bowl commercial in 2000 by EDS. They compared their ability to serve others like cowboys herding cats – with ease. Since then, the phrase is mostly used to describe those who can lead and handle life even when it is uncontrollable. The term is also considered a skill workers use when leading a group towards one goal.

Come meet our youth career advisor at the IowaWorks office on Tuesdays!

We want you to get to know our staff at the Fort Dodge IowaWORKS office, so we decided each week to feature a different staff person.

Here is our featured staff, Traci!

What do you do at IowaWORKS and in what circumstances would I come to you for something? I am a career advisor for WIOA Title 1 program that can assist eligible youth and young adults with getting skills to help with education and vocational success. With youth ages 16-24 we can provide work experience opportunities and job shadows. We can also help with financial assistance for school. Youth in our program are also eligible to receive financial incentives and bonuses for completing goals. Someone would come to me because they lack the skills needed to be successful in an educational institution and/or workplace. When I’m not at IowaWORKS, I can be found at Children & Families of Iowa.

When you were a kid, what did you want to be when you grew up? When I was a kid, I wanted to be a veterinary. When I was in 7th grade, I got to do a job shadow at the vet clinic and saw a cat get surgery and quickly found out that being a vet was not for me.

What’s the worst job you’ve ever had, and what did you learn from it? I haven’t had that many jobs to have a worst job ever! There’s been some that I liked more than the others, but I have also worked with the youth and that also comes with challenges. I have learned from all my jobs that there is all different types of people that you will encounter that you will have to work with and set aside any differences you may have to get the job done.

What’s one thing you’re currently trying to make a habit? Drink more water and read more during my free time.

What’s something you’ve done, but will never do again? Go on a rollercoaster. I have only been on one in my whole life and have no desire to go on one again.

What do you do to turn things around when you’re having a bad day? Make a trip to Target and stop by Starbucks on the way out.

Interested in a career with the Fort Dodge Police Department? There's still time to apply, but don't wait! The application process closes this Sunday, May 1, 2022, at 5:00 pm.

The civil service exam will take place Saturday, May 14, 2022, in Fort Dodge.

We can help you get into these programs and go beyond
