Job Search @ Selections Career Support Services

This is where participants will be assigned to a Career Development Coordinator and begin the process of seeking a good job fit based on their skills, interests, availability and preferences. The individual’s CDC will lead them through online applications and do ongoing follow-up with employers once jobs are applied for; however, the individual is expected to be involved in this process and motivated to find work or a volunteer position. During interviews, if the individual requests and the employer allows it, the CDC can accompany the individual interviewing for moral support and to help facilitate the conversation when needed. Career explorations are another way to assess a participant’s skills and interests by getting the individual to try out a few hours at a job trying a variety of tasks and shadowing other employees.
