Dear Friends,

With all the pressing issues before us as a nation, none is more important than getting Americans back to work! On Monday, April 11th at Southeastern Community College in Whiteville, I will host a Job Seekers Boot Camp.
 

This one day workshop is designed to give job seekers the tools they need to land a good job! Some of our area's most knowledgeable career counselors, business leaders, HR managers, and career coaches will be on hand to provide practical advice on resume improvement, interviewing, networking, and job seeking.

In addition, stations will be set up to provide one-on-one resume and interview counseling. I will also give an update on what the U.S. Congress is doing to create more jobs. This event will specifically highlight minority employment opportunities. The Project Director for the North Carolina Minority Business Development Center will be on-hand and will lead two seminars tailored to minority job seekers.

I am excited to host this boot camp for individual job seekers so they can be sure they are at the top of their game in this extremely competitive employment environment. This boot camp will not only refine skills and reignite enthusiasm, but will put job seekers in touch with key job resources.

This event is free for residents of the Seventh District. Registration starts at 9:30 a.m. and the program lasts from 10 a.m.- 3 p.m. Please register by visiting Congressman McIntyre’s website at http://mcintyre.house.gov. If you have questions about this event, please contact Congressman McIntyre’s Washington office at (202) 225-2731 or email kara.spencer@mail.house.gov.
