Job Search Skills
Of course you know how to "look for a job"; but I gotta tell you that even for myself I found looking for a job to be a job within itself.
This is a valuable course for graduates of high school and college, for individuals just entering the workforce, currently seeking employment and even for individuals returning to work or transitioning into a different career. I have had students from every stage in their working career and most assume this course covers basic ideas we all may already know; however, many students that have taken this course have obtained a new perspective on seeking employment or ensuring their career goals are going in the right direction.

Ask yourself this...Have you been applying to numerous jobs with no call-backs? Are you currently graduating from LBCC and have no idea how to approach this? Have you been out of the job market for quite some time and have no idea what the modern job seeking process looks like?
If you answered "yes" to any of these questions, then let me assist you in this job seeking process that will not only modernize your career portfolio but help you gain the confidence you need to landing a meaningful and promising career.

3 college credits toward your degree program; but even more than that, an impressive career portfolio that is full of tools and items you've built throughout this course that will get you that job you wanted or enlighten you on careers you may have never even considered.
You will be working with workforce development professionals and career coaches in building an arsenal of job seeking characteristics that'll put you ahead in a very competitive job market (i.e. LinkedIn Account, Job board online profiles, job seeking resources, resumes, cover letters, interview skills coaching, and the list goes on.)
