AtWork® has opened its newest location at 7173 W. Oakland Park Blvd. in Lauderhill, Fla. in the Oakbrook Plaza shopping center.

AtWork North Lauderdale is locally owned by Harish Rathod, a physician and entrepreneur who has grown businesses into multi-unit operations in the medical, hospitality and food industries. He will now bring staffing and recruiting solutions to the community he calls home and has plans to open a second location in Hollywood, Fla. within the next several months.
