Advanced Resumes -- A Jobs Program at the Fairfield Public Library

Is your resume bringing in phone calls and interviews? If you have a resume but wonder why it isn’t working for you, join us as we discuss ways to improve a resume by focusing on a strong profile, keywords and accomplishments. A career counselor from the Connecticut Department of Labor will lead this program on Monday, November 4 at 10:00 am in the Rotary Room at the Main Library, 1080 Old Post Road.  Registration is required.

Since January of 2012, 79 people who attended the Jobs series programs have reported they have found employment.

The final Jobs 2013 talk scheduled this fall is "Over 40 and Looking for Work" on December 2, 10:00 am.
