Our curriculum at JobSeekers includes a results-oriented job search module each week. The highly interactive session lasts about 75 minutes and usually includes putting into practice what we just learned. The application activity often involves small group discussions and role-plays. Our focus is not just on knowledge, but also on skill development.
