Greetings and Salutations... This week I want to offer a shameless endorsement for a small but important effort in the fight for full employment in northern Illinois. There are two friendly and extremely hard working professionals that staff the Harper College WorkNet Center in Arlington Heights, Illinois.
They offer a series of workshops for job seekers that are free and focus on skills that can and do help folks achieve their goal of landing a job. Here is the link http://bit.ly/f3dlDb to the courses that are offered. For example, here is a sample of what courses and workshops they offer:
The Harper College WorkNet Center is a little office inside the IDES office in Arlington Heights. It’s a drop-in center where folks are welcome to stop in and ask questions about different programs that are available to everyone at William Rainey Harper College, (In Palatine, Illinois.) Diane and Chris are the two ladies who staff the drop-in center and Diane teaches some of the workshops. I especially recommend her JIST Cards program as a unique tool for job seekers.
Lastly, here’s the shameless part, I conduct the Goal Setting for Job Seekers workshop every month. It really pushes the importance of focusing on the goal of getting the job offer and how to support the goal and strengthen your resolve in landing the job as quickly as possible.
