FY2025-26 Q2 Highlights
During the 2  quarter of FY 2025–26, the Chandler Career Center continued to experience
steady growth across both employer and job seeker engagement. 15 new Chandler-based
employers joined the platform this quarter, notably including Claim Assist Solutions,
McCarthy Building Companies, Comfort Systems USA Southwest, and Brycon. In addition,
101 new native job seekers registered on the Chandler Career Center, and approximately
200 Chandler-based positions were manually posted on behalf of employers as a value-
added workforce service. Key milestone events during this reporting period were the
Internship 101 for Businesses event, which successfully convened local employers and
regional education partners to strengthen work-based learning pathways and a 6th Lunch
and Learn to onboard Chandler employers to the Chandler Career Center. The Internship
101 for Businesses event featured a coordinated and collaborative presentation from the
City of Chandler Economic Development Division, Chandler Unified School District,
Chandler-Gilbert Community College, Arizona State University, and the University of
Arizona, helping employers better understand internship, apprenticeship, and early talent
engagement opportunities and how to develop a local talent pipeline. Looking ahead,
workforce development efforts will continue to emphasize entry-level and early-career
opportunities for Chandler youth, including part-time roles, internships, apprenticeships,
and entry-level full-time positions.
