I checked out the website -- it's nice to be able to offer links on your website for free resume and job hunting training. Some of the career counselors are more camera-shy than others, but they all come across as real. Take a look if you think this might be useful for your patrons.

The videos appear on our site, education-portal.com, which is a member of the American Library Association and the Association of College and Research Libraries. The site is dedicated to providing higher education and career planning resources for teens and college students as well as adults looking for employment or a career change. The videos feature advice from real world college and career counselors who have graciously volunteered their time with our project. The information covers everything from practical college entrance advice and university reviews to detailed explanations of how to set up professional resumes, job network, and conduct informational interviews. We hope you may support our cause by providing a link to our educational videos where you list other helpful web links for teens and/or adults. Here are some of our most valuable areas: For teens and college age students: University Admission Reviews by State http://education-portal.com/pages/Top_College_and_University_Video_Reviews.h tml College Admissions Videos http://education-portal.com/video_library/College_Admissions_Videos.html College Counseling Videos http://education-portal.com/video_library/College_Counseling_Videos.html For adults and job hunters: How to Build a Resume Videos http://education-portal.com/video_library/Resume_Videos.html Job Interviewing Videos http://education-portal.com/video_library/Job_Interviewing_Videos.html Job Networking Videos http://education-portal.com/video_library/Job_Networking_Videos.html Researching Careers Videos http://education-portal.com/video_library/Researching_Careers_Videos.html Please let me know if you have any questions about our videos or our site.
