About this Event

In this session,

  • Find out how volunteering demonstrates a leadership role, and why giving back to the community is an important value to most companies.
  • Understand why volunteering can make you a much stronger job candidate.
  • Learn how acquiring or updating skills as a volunteer is your “pathway to employment.”

Sound too good to be true? We’ll share 10+ years of volunteer experiences that have converted new skills into paid positions. Many have said, “Volunteering was the best training for a new career.”

There’s no commitment. Today’s session merely showcases how volunteers have found jobs 50% faster than jobseekers who don’t volunteer. You’ll hear directly from current volunteers.

Invest an hour of your time – here are just a few of the benefits:

  • Build confidence and increase self-esteem.
  • Bridge your resume gaps.
  • Learn and practice virtual presentation skills.
