Looking for a job? The library can help
By Pam Everhardt Bloom
Rowan Public Library
SALISBURY — Need a job? Finding a job can quickly become a full-time job in itself.
Whether embarking on an unforeseen job search or planning for a positive career change, maneuvering today’s online job search and applications can be somewhat overwhelming. Your public library can provide unexpected and valuable online job information without ever having to leave your home.
To start this process at home, you do need Internet access. If that’s not available, free Internet and computer time is available at the library. You may either log on with your library card or request a guest pass if without a card. Laptops are also available for checkout within the library to patrons with proper identification and no outstanding fees or fines.
Whether at home or at the library, once on the Internet, access the home page for the Rowan County Library, www.lib.co.rowan.nc.us/ . Next, look at the left hand side of the page and click “Online Tools.” When Online Tools opens, click on “Jobs” and a wealth of job hunting information is available at no cost.
Since many of today’s jobs require an online application, a valid email address is required. If you don’t have an email account or need to set up an email account with your professional name, this page will immediately direct you to free email sites.
Once you’ve taken care of basics, you’ll find extensive information about application procedures. Read all the tips for success when filling out your applications and find a fact sheet to print and complete with pertinent information to carry with you on your job search.
Not quite sure how to write a resume or cover letter? Continue down the list. If looking for a specific agency to help you, the JobLink Career Center, the Employment Security Commission and other locations, addresses and numbers are a click away.
Should you be nervous about interviewing, learn about everything from the top 35 questions to be prepared to answer, to how to dress, to what questions to ask your interviewer. Also find information about programs such as Goodwill’s Career Connections for no-cost, personalized career counseling with one-on-one interview coaching.
With all the preliminaries covered, it’s time to look for openings. You’ll find a list of local job listings linked to this site. In addition, you’re also able to search for jobs throughout North Carolina and the nation. Should you need to consider a total career change, other sites such as O*NET and Occupational Outlook Handbook provide information to help you choose a career that matches your interests.
