Job seekers can get no-cost expert advice every Tuesday in October at Roane State Community College’s Clinton Higher Education and Workforce Training Facility.

A Job Search Boot Camp will be held from 3:30-5:30 p.m. on Oct. 1, Oct. 8, Oct. 15, Oct. 22, and Oct. 29 at the facility at 214 Nave St. Anyone is invited to stop by, complete a sample job application, go through a mock interview, have their resume reviewed, and get feedback and job search advice from Roane State career experts.

“We focus on placing students in jobs every semester,” said Kim Harris, Roane State director of workforce training and job placement. “Because we work closely with employers, we know what makes candidates stand out during the interview process. We invite everyone to come by and take advantage of a chance to learn crucial skills that can help them get their foot in the door when they are looking for a job.”

No appointment is needed. Job seekers are welcome to stop by the Clinton Higher Education and Workforce Training Facility anytime between 3:30-5:30 p.m. every Tuesday in October.

Annie Smith went through Roane State’s job skills training as a student in the college’s Advanced Materials Training and Education Center. She is now a production associate at DENSO.

“Roane State career experts showed us how to present ourselves in the best possible way,” Smith said. “You are not as nervous when you talk to employers because you are so prepared. I’m sure it made a difference in my job search.”

For more information, call (865) 354-3000, ext. 4764, or email workforce@roanestate.edu.
