Resumés and cover letters are hard to write and you don't learn much about them in school. Both youth leaders and youth attending will develop a better understanding of how to format these documents to improve the chances of them getting an interview, and soon after, land the job.
This workshop will create a space for youth to network with other youth in their community, to share resources and advice.
