 Weekly sessions: Wednesdays 9.30 - midday and 6-8pm, Neighbourhood Centre  The club is open to all Barton residents on any Wednesday, even without registering. Job Club:Barton is aimed at anyone seeking
employment, looking for a change of career, training or further
education. Our group of volunteers are hoping to promote close ties with the local community, employers and Oxford’s colleges and universities, all in order that Barton residents have the best opportunities available to them to get into work. JC:B is a relaxed, friendly and informal atmosphere. Each week begins with a drop-in session with general information and a chance for people to talk. This is followed by a more focussed period which may cover topics such as: • Confidence building • Help with your CV • Interview techniques and preparation • Local volunteering opportunities • Career planning • Self-employment ideas JC:B will also aim to provide: • Internet access to seek for jobs online – with guidance • Hands-on support for those who can’t use a computer • Outsourced themed workshops/presentations from local businesses/colleges • Information on local employers, and lots more. This club will evolve as members join - reflecting their need.  |
