 How can Employment Options help me?

We provide direct access to various resources such as workshops, job postings, summer job services, employer information, apprenticeship, and educational information.

What if I’m not sure what kind of job I want?                                

There are resources available for you to determine educational and employment goals, as well as counselling services to assist you in making a career decision and developing an appropriate action plan. As much assistance as you require can be provided through one-on-one counselling, workshops, resource materials, or referrals to other appropriate agencies.

Do I have to find my own job, or will I get help in finding a job?      

We provide information on job search techniques such as résumé writing, interview skills, accessing the job market, and approaching employers through workshops and individual counselling. If self-marketing is not working for you, we can assist in matching you to employers that are participating in the program.

If I have an interview, how can you  help?                                              

We will provide tips on how to prepare for an interview and even offer a mock interview so that you are better prepared to face the challenge.
