We Need Volunteers!
Our local CCSHRM Chapter is ready to help our local community. We are preparing for Workforce Readiness and need a little bit of your volunteer time for activities such as:
• Interview mentors ‐ At Edison College to help them prepare for future careers
• Businesses that can offer a date and time to host an “Open House for future Employment”, show them around and tell them about your company and why it is so great!
• Career supporter for a fall event at a local location (probably an education location – TBD)
• Instructors for public citizens who would be able to attend on how to find, and get hired, training sessions such as:
o How to do a job search on the internet and other places
o Ways to write your resume so it says what your skills are
o What you should and should not do when interviewing
o And more… o
Please contact Cheryl Vanande the Workforce Chair by emailing [email protected] to let her know if you and/or a coworker have a specific interest in helping with one or more of these events.
