Program - Using JobNow to Help Your Patrons

Using JobNow to Help Your Patrons

Do you have patrons coming to the library looking for help with any of the following?

• Writing a resume or cover letter
• Finding local job listings
• Preparing for the US Citizenship Test
• Practicing for an upcoming interview
• Passing the GED

You have the tools available to assist with these questions and more right at your desktop! JobNow provides online, live job assistance including expert resume help, interview preparation and career coaching. Come learn the ins and outs of JobNow with Chris Finger, who will show you how to help your patrons get the most from this powerful resource. Pat Finnerty will also tell us about some upcoming JobNow system-wide promotion being funded through a New York State Adult Literacy grant.

Facilitated by Chris Finger and Pat Finnerty
