Hitting the Pavement: The Job Leads List

We are fast approaching the end of March, which means that is time to really buckle down on your job searches.  Emily and I teach Job Readiness workshops every Wednesday (2-4pm) and Thursday (3-4:30).  In those workshops, we cover how to use the Internet effectively for job searches and we discuss how to prepare for the job search (where to look for jobs, what to do when cold calling, etc.).  So, if you feel like you need a refresher please come and join us in the computer lab at the Michigan Works off of Harriet Street in Ypsilanti.

Job Club Tonight: Using Technology Effectively

 Tonight's job club topic will about using technology effectively for job hunting.  This is your chance to ask our workforce development staff about Internet or computer questions.  We all know that technology is changing the way we interact, but technology is also changing the way we get employed.  A lot of companies are switching from paper, in-store applications to online applications housed on their business website.  In addition, actual jobs are now being posted online on websites like Craigslist, Indeed, or the Michigan Talent Bank.  As I like to say in our workshops, if you don't understand computer and Internet technology you could literally be left in the dark. 

We look forward to seeing all of you at Job Club.  This event is free and open to the public.  Light refreshments will be served.
