RESUMÉ WORKSHOP 

Learn how to craft an eye-catching and informative resumé that’ll help land the job you want. Discover how to create a document unique to your skills, experience, and goals, as well as how to avoid common mistakes and overcome issues like work gaps or age discrimination. Hosted by Jez Layman.

Special note: If you are interested, we will be continuing our career-focused programming with Jez on February 24 with a Cover Letters Workshop, and then on March 23 with Ace Your In-Person Interview workshop. You don't need to attend all three; each program stands alone.

She has taught at over 100 libraries, colleges, organizations, and community centers about crafts, astrology, life skills, and job hunting.

COVER LETTERS MADE EASY 

Learn how to write a standout cover letter employers will want to read. Cover letters are the part of the job hunting process that cause the most amount of confusion for job seekers and can be what determines whether a candidate gets an interview. Follow along as we break down the process step-by-step to help you create a cover letter unique to you that complements your resume and highlights your skills.
