What I did today

Today I completed my 100 hours for the AWEX program. I started off with the job listings. Then I was working on the food bank listings. For the job listings I am searching for entry level positions for the students to apply to. The challenge is to find opportunities that are entry level and does not require too much qualifications, because most of the positions requires the applicant to have some knowledge of the position. For the food bank listing, I am currently working on Santa Barbara county. I was able to find some more places to add to the list.

What I did Today?

It was the beginning of the first class for Supported Job Search for me. And then there was an orientation with Devin about what to expect for the class. I then started to make my cover letter more presentable by making a few changes. After that I started to look at job listings for an Office Clerk on Indeed.
