A workshop on how ex-convicts can find a job in this tough economy is part of a steady stream of events trying to connect North Carolina’s unemployed workers to companies with jobs to fill.
The usual seminars on learning to network and writing winning resumes at Wednesday’s career expo at North Carolina State University’s McKimmon Center included a workshop offering job-hunting tips for ex-offenders.
The Raleigh event is part of a long list of events put on by the state’s JobLink employment offices. Another job fair was held Tuesday at Catawba Valley Community College in Hickory. Two more are scheduled Thursday in Morehead City and Winston-Salem. Others later this month are in New Bern, Kinston, Concord and Charlotte.
