SLATE Offers Community Series Workshop To Help Jobseekers Break Into The Job Market

The St. Louis Agency on Training and Employment (SLATE) is co-sponsoring a Community Series Workshop to assist job seekers with online job applications. The event will take place on Tuesday, January 28, 2014, from 8:30 to 11:30 a.m., at Jefferson Barracks/Missouri Guard, 24 Davis Street, Bldg. 24, St. Louis, MO 63125.

The workshop is designed to help job seekers overcome the online job application "black hole", prepare for the "six second" resume test, and master interviewing skills.

The speaker, SLATE's own Frank Alaniz, is a nationally-recognized workforce professional, a trainer and recruiter, with 40 years of experience connecting with job seekers and maximizing their opportunities for employment. He also serves as a Preferred Program Coordinator for the Missouri Employer Support of Guard and Reserves (ESGR) and a Facilitator/Program Developer for the Missouri Veterans Work-Ready Employment Assistance Program (WREAP).

Workshop participants must make advance reservations to attend; this step is absolutely required, especially for non active-duty military personnel, as they will not be allowed on the military premises without proper authorization. To make a reservation, please contact Frank Alaniz at frank.alaniz@ded.mo.gov.

SLATE has partnered with the Missouri Division of Workforce Development, SLATE Missouri Career Center (SLATE MCC), ESGR, and the Veterans Training and Employment Network to offer this no-cost informational event.
