Program Description:
Laid off - those dreaded words. Those of us who are employed can only
imagine the fear and frustration that must face the many people who have
lost their jobs in recent months. At the same time nobody knows what
tomorrow will bring either. 

What can we do? It's never too early to prepare. Let's start with the
resume. Do you have one? Is it updated? 

Some of your patrons have no idea where to start. If they do have a
resume, there's a good chance they think they can sit in front of a
computer screen, submit dozens of resumes, and a job will magically
appear. Employment experts are estimating that as many as 80% of the
jobs being found during this downturn in our economy are found through
networking, not through plastering your resume all over town, and that
includes "cybertown"... 

In this first session of the Layoffs and Beyond series, we will discuss
what needs to be on your resume and what you should get rid of - now! We
will also delve into how you go about networking - what is it? Why is it
so important today? How does my personality affect my inclination to
network? 

Perhaps there are other groups in your community who are already
offering this information to the unemployed. But we all need to keep our
resumes up-to-date, no matter what our job status is. And it sure never
hurts to learn a few new tricks of the trade when it comes to
networking. You'll find this session not only helpful to your library,
but also helpful to you or someone you know who may need this
information in the future. 

Meals: No meal is included in this workshop 

 

Audience: Anyone intersted in updating their resume or helping others
