Are you unemployed and looking to land a progressive job with a future, a job that will enable you to use all of your skills?
Are you currently working at a part-time job that you feel is not going to lead to full-time or the career you desire? Job Opportunities for Youth can help you make the right kind of connections!
If you're between the ages of 15 to 30 years of age, the Job Opportunities for Youth program may be right for you.
The Job Opportunities for Youth program is designed to link job-ready youth with full-time, permanent employment. If you are ready to enter the world of work, JOY can connect you with employers who are ready to hire.
Job opportunities are posted on our website which is updated on a daily basis. As a JOY participant, you have exclusive access to our postings. Employers post their job opportunities with the JOY program and we make the job opportunity available to Youth Participants in the program. Youth post their resume online for employers to search for applicants with the skills matching their job opportunity requirements.
