MOORESTOWN - With more than 10 million Americans out of work, the Moorestown Library hopes to do its part in helping residents get back into the job market.
This week the library will host three workshops for job seekers that will be moderated by vocation expert Molly Mihocko, who also serves as a vocational consultant in Burlington County.
Mihocko will cover job hunting and networking on Wednesday, resume writing on Thursday and interview skills on Friday.
The library has a broad range of services in place to assist residents with their employment searches, and library officials believe the workshops will offer valuable information to those in need of a job.
"As a resource center we make every effort possible to accommodate the needs of our community," library director Joe Galbraith said. "The library has facilitated the job-search endeavor for a very long time and we are happy to offer these workshops as a continuation towards those services and programs."
Advertisement The workshop series is funded in part by a grant from the South Jersey Regional Library Cooperative and the New Jersey State Library.
The workshops are free and scheduled to start at 1 p.m. Registration is required. For more information and to register, call the library at 856-234-0333.
