If you need extra assistance to become employed, or you believe that qualify for one of the special programs listed later in this Orientation, then you should make an appointment to meet with a Career Advisor.

What is a Career Advisor?

A Career Advisor is a highly trained, professional who can provide an initial assessment of your needs. They also help job seeker customers in the Resource Room, make job referrals for job seekers who lack computer skills, and schedule individual appointments to discuss program eligibility and enrollment.

The Career Advisor may recommend that you attend workshops to upgrade your resume or improve your interviewing skills. They may encourage you to attend one of the three networking groups for job seekers. A Career Advisor may suggest that you complete self-service programs in the Resource Room to help you to become more marketable and more likely to find suitable employment.

If you are still unable to attain employment, and you meet certain eligibility requirements, you may be enrolled in programs that offer more intensive services or occupational training.
