Job searching can be an overwhelming experience but the Job Opportunities
for Youth consultants are available to assist you in all aspects
of your search.
We can offer guidance, support and friendly
advice. Below are some tools and tips to get you started:
• Career Counselling.
Before you are able to start a targeted job search you must first
have a job focus. One of our Job Opportunities for Youth consultants
can help you examine your skills, interests and abilities and how
you can transfer them into viable career options. Consultants can
also help you with goal setting and action planning to help you
stay on track with your job search.
• Job Search
Learn how to conduct a results oriented job search and discover
how a targeted, professional job search can make the difference
in achieving the job you have always wanted. From learning how to
choose the correct resume style to how to access the hidden job
market to landing the ever-important job interview, a JOY Consultant
can help you achieve these goals.
• Job Leads
By connecting with Job Opportunities for Youth, you will be gaining
access to numerous employers who are looking for qualified candidates.
• Resume and Cover Letter Assistance
Choosing the right style of resume to highlight your skills is essential
in getting employers to take notice of you. One of our Job Opportunities
for Youth consultants can help you organize your skills and experience
effectively so that employers will see the connection between their
needs and your qualifications.
Having a targeted cover letter is essential in getting employers
interested to ever read your resume. A form style letter does not
speak to the employers needs or specific requirements. Learning
how to change your cover letter every time you apply for a job is
easier then you think and one of our consultants will be able to
assist you in this process.
• Interview Preparation
Once you have targeted an employer, written a successful resume
and cover letter, the interview is your chance to present yourself
in person to a prospective employer. First impressions are extremely
important. Learn how to be successful an in interview, everything
from preparation to follow-up. As well as learning about the behavioural
style which many employers are now using.
