Hollywood Community Church, 1708 North State Road 7, Hollywood will be hosting the Better Jobs Job Fair on August 12 from 10 a.m. – 1 p.m.

Here’s how it works… Before meeting with prospective employers, job seekers may consult with Better Jobs volunteers for interviewing tips, resume help and coaching on how they can best articulate their skills. Church-based organizers recruit other assistants, such as volunteer hairstylists, and collect business attire to help attendees look and feel their best. Participating employers are coached in advance, too, and encouraged to replace anonymous online applications with live interviews, ask questions that go beyond standard work histories and fill open positions on the spot. There’s even an “Opportunity Bell” that candidates and hiring managers ring when they’ve made a match! The impact is remarkable, with more than 34,000 job seekers finding employment through our church-based, volunteer-powered model.
