THE WOMEN’S RESOURCE CENTER CAREER KIT
The WRC Career Kit helps our Career Coaches guide you through your job search, including identifying potential jobs/careers, executing a job search, creating a resume, developing your network, or sharpening your interviewing skills.
Whether you are looking for part-time or full-time work in your current field or starting a whole new career, this guide serves as a road map for you and your Career Coach as you go through this process. During the first meeting, your coach works with you to determine where you are in the journey, and that’s where you start the process.
The Career Kit includes a 75-page workbook with descriptions, exercises, and samples; forms; and action items lists.
If you prefer working on your own, download the kit and start working!
