The New Age of Job Searching Using the World Wide Web




In today’s world, looking for work is not just handing out resumes door to door, but looking for job opportunities on the “World Wide Web”.
Job searching is like a full time job; just to find a position that might just be the “one”. Many opportunities are found in what is known as the hidden job market. Company websites hold career/employment opportunities that may not appear in other advertising avenues. Some websites also hold additional information to help in your job search process. You can learn about resumes, cover letters, how to handle yourself in an interview and so on.

VCCS Employment Services offer you workshops for Internet Job Searching as well as the 3 week Job Finding Club and 3 day Job Search Workshop. These are just a few of our workshops that can assist you in your steps to employment.
Ask our friendly staff for a copy of The Employment Resource Guide for the City of Kawartha Lakes. This little booklet is full of information, along with phone numbers to important services that you can access. If you are willing to take time; our friendly staff will be here to give you a hand. Happy Job Hunting!
Always remember to check out the local Labour Market Information in your active job search.
