Stamford CT: To support the immigrant community in their efforts to source job opportunities,
B1C has partnered with Indeed to provide complimentary guidance to find jobs online. The
webinars will dive into resume basics, job search fundamentals, and job application best
practices.

"In these difficult times, when many people are losing their jobs, it is imperative that at Building
One Community, we provide our participants with tools to maintain their income and support
their families. We are very thankful to Indeed for facilitating these practical webinars to teach
people how to use their job search engine. Their workshop is tailored to our participants' needs,
who often have limitations to access the technology tools we all take for granted," said Ivonne
Zucco, Workforce Development Director, Building One Community.

Indeed continues to be a valuable and generous partner to Building One Community providing
events and tools to support immigrants. The first webinar was held successfully on August 31st,
with lots of interest.

Zucco added, "On the first night of the webinar, we had more than 30 people attending. We
hope to have even greater number of participants for the future sessions. The webinar is open
to the general public."
