Participants become members of a community of job-hunters that meets together every day to share ideas, information and support.  They also work together making contacts and developing
job leads.

 

 

Goal Setting –Each job hunter is required to set goals and establish a plan to achieve them.

Participants are required to dress in professional attire and tardiness is not accepted.  They are taught that the job hunt is now their full-time work.  It is to be pursued eight hours a day, five days a week just as every other job.  Time not spent in the office is spent in the field filling out applications, meeting employers, and learning how to meet the person who is responsible for hiring.

 

Phone Skills and Interviewing Skills -Role play is used to learn how to use the phone to find work and how to interview with a prospective employer.  These exercises also serve as confidence builders.
Resume Writing - Resume writing serves two purposes one is to market the job-hunter to employers.  The other is to show the job-hunters how many gifts they have, how much experience they have and how valuable they can be to an employer

Among the skills which the participants will learn are:

The program is intensive one-on-one coaching.  Coaching includes serving as teacher, care giver, cheerleader, and personal coach. Coaching also emphasizes each individual's worth and unique gifts.  Discovering their gifts will help guide the job hunters toward work that is satisfying.   They are taught to believe in themselves and the possibilities for their future.  The desire is to empower them to become all they have been created to be.  The ultimate goal is for each one to be self-sufficient.
