Job Search Assistance
We offer a hands-on approach to job search. In our 3 day workshop, job seekers will improve their interview skills through a mock interview, write eye-catching cover letters, gain expert assistance with a professional rsume, explore job search websites on the internet, learn about employment tests, develop ways to build one's network, and find out what employers are really lloking for in today's job candidates.
The Job Search facilitators work on a one-to-one basis with all clients upon completion of the workshop to fine tune the resume, prepare customized cover letters and reference lists, and assist with a job development plan that is based on the client's unique background, skills, and interests. With these tools, the job seeker gains an increased level of confidence to take control of his or her own job search in a knowledgeable, determined, and focused manner. And the best part is that all clients can receive professionsl assistance and guidance from the facilitators until suitable employment is found.
