Looking for work? No computer? Shoreline Goodwill can help!

Wednesday, January 20, 2010

Public can use Goodwill computers for career-related activities 

For people who need a computer to search the Internet for jobs, or get advice on preparing a resume and applying for jobs online, Shoreline Goodwill’s Job Training and Education Center is here to help.

On Mondays and Wednesdays from 9 to 10:30 am during the current session that runs until February 24, the center’s computer lab will be open to the public. Individuals can use the computers for career-related activities, and Instructors will be available to answer questions and provide assistance.

People need not take a Goodwill class to use the computers; they are available to everyone in the community for career-related activities.

“A lot of us take it for granted that we have access to computers. For those who don’t, it’s extremely difficult to look and apply for jobs. By opening our computers to the public, especially people who don’t have jobs, we hope to lend them a hand and get them on the path to employment,” said Jim Hale, Goodwill’s Director of Field Site Operations.

The center is located at 14500 15th Ave NE. For class availability and enrollment information, please call 206-631-8457.
