Lone Star College-Tomball Community Library and Workforce Solutions are presenting two free seminars designed to give job-seekers an edge in today’s competitive job market.
“Creating a Resume/Completing the Application” (March 13, 1:00 ̶ 3:00 p.m.) is a two-hour seminar on how to best present yourself on paper to potential employers. Preparation, identifying skills and experience, matching them to the job, and presenting them in a compelling manner are just some of the topics to be discussed. This seminar will be held in the Lone Star College-Tomball Community Library (Room L-207).
“Networking” (March 27, 1:00 ̶ 3:00 p.m.) is a two-hour seminar on how networking is not limited to making personal contacts; it’s learning how to find unadvertised jobs, get a foot in the door, develop an effective contact list, and create a marketing profile that promotes skills and abilities. This seminar will be held in the Lone Star College-Tomball Community Library (Room L-256).
Both seminars will be followed by one-hour resume labs (3:00 ̶ 4:00 p.m.). Participants will need their library cards to log in to the computers (for those without a card, a temporary login can be issued) and a jump/flash drive to save their resumes (or the resumes can be sent to a personal e-mail account if a jump drive is not available).
For more information or to register for the seminars, call the Lone Star College-Tomball Community Library Reference Desk at 832.559.4211. LSC-Tomball is located at 30555 Tomball Parkway, at the intersection of State Highway 249 and Zion Road.
