How to make sure you’re ready for that big job interview

Are you ready to get that dream job? (OCLS.)

Applying for a job is easy, but anyone will tell you that creating the perfect resume and doing well in the interview can be challenging.

Not only do you want your resume to look perfect, but making a good first impression on a potential employer can make or break landing the job. It’s a lot to think about, especially if this is your first big job out of college, looking to change career paths or if you are re-entering the workforce after some time. It would be fabulous if you could get some advice on all the aspects of getting a job, right?

Lucky for you, Orange County Library System has all the resources you need to help land the job you’ve always wanted. In addition to their online career guide found at libguides.ocls.info/careers, Orange County Library System routinely hosts two classes to assist job seekers in their journey.
