13 Jun Career Scoop: Your Career Connection

Betty Johnson, Vice President of Employment Services

I am excited to announce that for the first time Goodwill is offering an online community space where clients can interact with each other, with counselors and trainers, and learn much more about the job search process.

www.goodwillcareersolutions.org is our new Web site that provides easy access to the 17 Career Solutions centers in Middle and West Tennessee and their respective programs and services. With one click a client can meet the counselor for the center closest to them, access a map, and learn about all of the training and services provided and more.

My Career Connection is a client community that is similar to Facebook. It allows for discussion on topics related to job placement and training services and it has training videos. Since some of our clients may not having access to a computer at home, My Career Connection offers a personal profile space in which clients can save their resumes for their online job application needs. Interacting with My Career Connection also strengthens the skills our clients are learning in our Digital Literacy classes.

The Community Events Calendar offers clients easy access to the latest information on job search and placement events in Middle and West Tennessee.

We intend to keep the content current and fresh with updated success stories, new tips and resources and of course, every day, the mix of folks utilizing My Career Connection will be new and different. Anyone involved in the job search process will want to keep checking back.
