About
JobLink
The
JobLink Career Center represents a new way of providing individualized
help with placement and career planning. The JobLink Career Center
system is a consortium of several non-profit and government agencies
offering free assistance for job-seekers and employers. The Centers
are under the direction of the Guilford County Workforce Development
Board. Because so many agencies are represented under
one roof, it makes it easier for you to get all the help or information
you need to find a better job, make career decisions, get training,
or find qualified employees.
This
"One-Stop Center" offers the employer the ability to
post job openings, gain information on a variety of government
benefits such as tax credits and transportation needs, customize
training for employees and screen potential applicants. A variety
of events are offered for the employer throughout the year including
job fairs and seminars on various topics. The satisfaction rate
has been consistently high for employers who use our services
frequently.
For
the job seeker, there are numerous services offered including
career exploration, skills assessment, job placement and educational
planning. JobLink has job listings, career and job search handbooks,
easy-to use resume software, a typing tutorial and individual
assistance. New tools are being added all the time. A number
of experienced career counselors provide the help you need to
be placed in a career, training or further education based on
your personal situation.
