Work club to launch in Crownhill

A new 'work club' offering support and advice for jobseekers is being launched at Crownhill Library next week. The Crownhill Work Club will give people in the area a chance to meet others looking for work, share job hunting experiences and get advice on interview techniques, CVs and volunteering opportunities.

Chris Hunnings from Plymouth City Council’s library service said: “Research shows that the best way to find another job is through friends, family or social networks, which is why groups like this are so valuable.

“During the sessions we will help you to look for work by swapping ideas and talking to guest speakers, including people from local businesses, about opportunities in the area. If you haven’t used the internet before, we will get you started.

"Careers South West will also be delivering skills workshops to help you feel more confident in your job hunting and career choices.”

The club will launch on Thursday 4 April and meet every fortnight from 10am to 1pm.
