Transferable Skills Workshop

You have a toolbox, and you take it with you to every new job. In that box are your transferable skills, and your skillset includes both technical skills and "good employee/great team player" skills. Those skills were developed in school, in your home life, through hobbies, and at previous jobs. Let's make an inventory! Job seekers also need to assess the level of expertise for each skill – and analyze the job posting to figure out which tools and skills will be valuable to that employer for that position.

Applications: Dos and Don'ts Workshop

This workshop talks about paper applications (they still exist!) and online applications. Both of them are legal documents and require your close attention for accuracy. Some fields may need some explanation. Never leave blanks!!! Why? We'll talk about that. We have all filled out applications! Why is this step in the job search process so important? We'll talk about that.

Make Your Own Re-Employment Success Workshop

This workshop takes a new look at the job search process and focusses on the steps that YOU control. Have you listed all of your transferable skills? Are your computer skills strong enough to post a resume on the many online jobs boards? How do you set targets for your search? Have you considered the same job in a different industry, or a different job at the same company? Like every skill you have in your toolbox, your job search skills get better with practice. In this workshop, we'll look at each of the steps in a job search and identify the resources available to you from your local job center and its partners.

Time: 1:00 PM - 2:30 PM
