Happy Tuesday, Community Partners!
I'm Dana Campbell, Business Services & Communications Program Manager. Unfortunately, I have been quite ill lately, so I haven't been able to source jobs like normal, but don't worry, I'll be back next week with updates and other Hot Jobs!
Now, let’s dive into what you’ve been waiting for—Hot Jobs!
Great news: the latest edition of our Hot Jobs Flyer is here, packed with fantastic job opportunities right in our community. These positions are highly sought after, so don't wait—spread the word and help someone land their next great career!
But how does someone apply??? - The first 10 pages, a person will apply with the business directly. If someone are interested in any of the positions through Work Experience or On-the-Job Training, they need to apply for our program (if they aren't a participant already) at www.cowib.org/apply; if they are a participant already, have them tell their Career Navigator that they are interested in one of the positions.
A Quick Note: The employers listed in our flyer are independent of COWIB’s recruitment efforts. This resource is completely free for all job seekers, and you can ensure you never miss an update by signing up at www.cowib.org/hotjobs.
Save the Date: Our next Hot Jobs flyer drops on Tuesday, December 10th, 2024—be sure to mark your calendars!
