“Who in your congregation has knowledge and skills to help teach a class on job hunting, preparing resumes, and conducting successful job interviews? Who can teach on networking, personal branding, or how to launch a new business?” - C.Leaders

NewI've done this

Wed, 06/10/20

What I experienced, though, is that while a class can be a valuable start, what’s really needed for most is one on one counseling for many job seekers. Someone needs to review that resume, look at their job history, certifications, education, and the like, help them find an appropriate interview wardrobe, and coach them in how to work well with the interviewers.

I’ve done it for others, and others have done it for me. It’s incredibly rewarding, and a way to really get to know others in the church well.

Aspiring to be a stick in the mud.
