I plan to organize a job club for unemployed recent college graduates who are facing difficult times finding work, especially as artificial intelligence is rapidly changing the job market. This job club will help young people stay connected, build skills, and transition into careers instead of becoming discouraged by a difficult hiring environment. I decided to form the club after speaking to recent graduates and their parents this summer. Seems like there is a need
We will offer workshops on civil service exams using AI tools productively, understanding what skills are in demand.
Many jobs are found through personal connections. We can bring together local employers, alumni, entrepreneurs, and professionals to meet graduates. We can share tips on resumes, linked in profiles, and help with interview techniques.
Extended unemployment is isolating. We will provide peer support, encouragement during the job search. Businesses may need qualified entry-level employees. Our club can serve as a bridge between employers and recent graduates. A structured networking program will give recent graduates a place to discuss opportunities.
This job club will bring together graduates, employers, nonprofits.
Looking for volunteers who can help the unemployed by participating in workshops, helping coordinate this initiative. And, also looking for participants who can benefit from the program. Please e mail me at pfeiner@greenburghny.com
