Phoenix based workshops can help build career skills

Finding resources to build skills during your career transition can be an exhausting process.  The internet provides a great way to find multiple locations and sources of information.  For candidates making a career transition in Phoenix, there are several places to receive information that can make the job search process easier.

  • Search weekly to find workshops provided at no cost from credible locations such as One Stop Centers, college career services centers, and Workforce Connections.
  • Maximize your time by attending workshops with multiple topics at one time.
  • Vary the topics you focus on based on what steps have been the most challenging in the career search process.  If you are confident in the content of your resume, look for resources that will expand your ideas and options for getting your resume into the hands of potential employers.
  • Find resources that may be specific to your industry.  Use professional networks and associations to attend events that are focused on career development.
