Getting to interviews without a car in Knoxville after 17 years as an insurance claims processor

The bus takes almost an hour to reach the places hiring as an insurance claims processor. I am in Knoxville, in case local advice matters. I can walk part of the way. Are there discounted passes?

Some workforce centres hand out bus tokens for interviews. Ask at the desk.

Keep everything in writing and save the confirmation numbers. It saved me later.
