How many times has a user approached you with a question like this:
"Could you help me find a job on the Internet? I'm looking for work in
accounts payable but when I tried looking up accounting, it gave me
50,000 jobs; it seems like most of them are either in Houston or
Dallas."
In this course you will learn about:
* Online and printed career resources
* Helping people find specific job information (salary, companies,
employers, etc.)
* Types of resumes (functional, chronological) and the advantages
and disadvantages of each
* How to respond to requests for help with resumes or cover
letters
This workshop will provide you with the techniques and resources you
need to assist users seeking employment in today's marketplace. You will
explore online career, salary and resume resources, search job and
salary databases using specific position search parameters, and write
resumes suitable for email, Internet and hard copy use. The instructor
will provide sample resumes, templates, cheat sheets, and a
webliography, as well as practical, useful tips that can be applied
immediately.
Our instructor is Dana Lee, an experienced instructional designer who
has developed training for Fortune 500 corporations and educational
institutions, as well as for Infopeople. Ms. Lee has 20 years of
experience working with adult learners and knows what job seekers need.
She is bilingual and continues to write and teach workshops in financial
