Hitting the Pavement: The Job Leads List


It is Monday morning, and what a beautiful Monday morning it is.  Cold temperatures and a little bit of snow make for a chilly day perfect for cold calling, applying to jobs, and reviewing our latest job leads list.

For those of you new to the blog, our job leads list is a grouping of pre-screened employers who are looking to hire and will consider individuals with a felony back ground.  We send these via email to our MPRI participants first, and then we will post them to the blog later in the day for individuals in the community who have felony backgrounds and are looking for employment.

Emily Smith is also an AmeriCorps*VISTA with the workforce development team.  Every Friday afternoon until early Monday morning she combs her Internet sources (these are the same ones listed in our blog side bar) looking for jobs that she can share with returning citizens to help aid them in their job search. 

Please remember that this list is only a starting place.  Finding a job is full-time job, so keep searching beyond what you see here.  Good luck!

*If you are having trouble viewing any of the links please leave me a comment and I will get back to you.*
