New Year, New Opportunities
As we review our accomplishments and set new goals, Isis Rose and Jancie Harris will help us realize our potential and start the year with success.
Isis and Jancie will guide us as we pursue new opportunities and prepare ourselves for a new job or career. In this workshop, we will focus on:
- Assessing ourselves as professionals
- Transferring our valuable skills
- Readying ourselves for any opportunity
Looking for a career change, a new opportunity, or a chance to network? Join us at the library's upcoming Community Job Fair!
