Why do unemployed professionals
in our communities need this program?

Despite millions of jobs posted online every week, the average job seeker remains unemployed for a record 42 weeks. Some remain unemployed and give up looking entirely.

Today, a simple search for any position yields plenty of results

The problem of unemployment is not one of lacking jobs, but one of communication.

Job seekers have not had to look for employment for years, and some, not for decades. Applicants today are puzzled by the new job market and the lack of responses to the same resume they had no difficulty drawing attention to previously.

This is because today the resume is the key to getting noticed by employers and most find it difficult to communicate years of experience on one page. Employers with open positions are just as eager in filling their open positions with the right talent as job seekers are in finding employment. Yet, job seekers find themselves disconnected from the employers who are looking for their skills.

We help people communicate their skills so clearly that employers looking for those skills can find our job seekers easily.
