Online Job Search Class


Overall, the class was very successful. Seven people showed up for the 2-hour class session.

In the class, students learned how to find and develop keywords for their job search, select and use the appropriate online tools and job search sites, formulate an effective search strategy, conduct searches using various search techniques, and evaluate their finds. To support the curriculum, the instructor has created a website, class booklet, practice exercises, and additional resources for the class.
