LSC-Tomball Community Library Offers Free Seminars for Job Seekers

Workforce Solutions will offer three job-seeking seminars in February at the Lone Star College-Tomball Community Library, located at 30555 Tomball Parkway. Seminars are held on the second floor in the computer lab room, L207.

The “Creating a Resume/Completing the Application” seminar will be held on Wednesday, Feb. 2 from 2 to 4 p.m. Participants will learn how to fill out thorough, accurate and neat applications and create effective resumes that make their education, skills and experience clear to the employer. The right application and/or resume will determine whether or not an applicant will make the interview pool.

The “Resume Lab” seminar will be held on Wednesday, Feb. 9 from 2 to 4 p.m. With the help of an experienced trainer, all participants will learn to build a modern, effective resume in Microsoft Word and save it electronically for future use.  

The “Interviewing” seminar will be held on Wednesday, Feb. 16 from 2 to 4 p.m. Participants will learn effective interviewing techniques, such as how to respond appropriately to common interview questions and how to negotiate salary and benefits for a new job. Because the interview is where jobs are won or lost, the seminar will help interviewees increase their chances of receiving a job offer.

For more information or to register for these free job-seeking seminars, call Lone Star College-Tomball Community Library at (832) 559-4211 or 559-4219. The library is located off State Highway 249, between the intersections of Baker Drive and Zion Road.
