Community Partners are essential in helping us achieve our goal of connecting young adult jobseekers with viable work opportunities in the Los Angeles area.  We rely on Community Partners to reach out to the public they service and host Job Skills Workshops, Work Readiness Certifications and Hiring Events.

HOW IT WORKS:

1. •JOB SKILLS WORKSHOPS
   

2. Conducted by a volunteer business professional, attendees role play interviewing techniques, share job search tips, learn how to dress appropriately for  job interviews, and complete a professional personal resume.
   

3. 
   

4. •WORK READINESS CERTIFICATE
   

5. The Certification is a mock application process, scheduled by appointment.  Participants must arrive on time, present their resume, complete a written job application, pass a math skills test and a customer service assessment, and sit in a practice interview with a volunteer professional.
