The unemployment rate for the City of New Haven is reported at only 8.4 %* The State of Connecticut Department of Labor using the following definitions determines that figure: LABOR FORCE CONCEPTS (As reprinted from DOL Office of Research) The civilian labor force comprises all state residents age 16 years and older classified as employed or unemployed in accordance with criteria described I dow. Excluded are members of the military and persons in institutions (correctional and mental health, for example). The employed are all persons who did any work as paid employees or in their own business during the survey week, or who have’ worked 15 hours or nero unpaid workers in an enterprise operated by a family member. Persons temporarily absent from ajob because of illness. bad weather, strike’ or for personal reasons are also counted as employed whether they were paid by their employer or were seeking otherjohs. Th’ unemployed ai-e all persons who did not work, but were available for work during the survey week (except for temporary illness) and made specific efforts to find ajob in the prior four weeks. Persons waiting to be recalled to ajob from which they had been laid off need not he’ looking for work to be classified as unemployed. The unemployment rate represents the number unemployed as a percent of the civilian labor force. With the except:on of those persons temporarily absent from ajob or waiting to be recalled to one, poons with no job and who ore J1” ookmngior one are counted as “not in the labor force”. 5 вЂ� Over the course of a yeai, the size of the labor force and levels of employment undergo fluctuations due to such seasonal events as changes in weather, reduced or expanded production, harvests, major holidays and closing of schools. Because these seasonal events follow a regular pattern each year, their influence on statistical trends can be eliminated by adjusting the monthly statistics. Seasonal Adjustment makes it easier to observe cyclical and other non-seasonal developments.

The grants are part of the Ready to Work Partnership (Ready To Work) initiative to support and scale innovative collaborations between employers, nonprofit organizations and federal job training programs to help connect ready-to-work Americans with ready-to-be-filled jobs. (in CT $12 million) - This program responds to the Presidents call to action to support and expand public-private partnerships that are helping long-term unemployed individuals get back to work. The Ready To Work grant program will provide those experiencing long-term unemployment with a range of training and supportive and specialized services leading to rapid employment in middle and high-skilled jobs. Ready To Work projects are built around a comprehensive, up-front assessment of long-term unemployed individuals needs and skills, resulting in customized interventions across three tracks: 1) intensive coaching and other short-term, specialized services culminating in directjob placement into middle and high-skilled jobs; 2) short-term interventions leading to employment into middle and high-skill ed jobs; and 3) accelerated skills training along a career pathway to middle and high skilled jobs. Projects incorporate work-based training models with earning components for long-term unemployed workers through models such as on-the-job training (OJT), paid work experience, paid internships, and Registered Apprenticeships. These programs also include tangible commitments from employers and other partners to provide employment opportunities, technical skills training, and on-the-job training and other paid work experience for H-I B occupations, while also addressing the barriers, income needs, and supportive service needs unique to long-term unemployed workers.

Joel Carfinide, founder of Dream Job Coaching, a con sulting firm specializing in per sonal fulfillment and professional transformation based in Oakland, California, offers these suggestions. DEilllE WHICH ASPECTS OF YOUR JOB YOU LIXE Then find a way to do more of whatever that is. When you are engrossed in a project you like, your workday will be ener gizing rather than draining. You may also find that the tasks you enjoy are the same ones a coworker or boss dislikes. Find out if you can work out a winwin situation. LEARN FROM THE BEST AROUND YOU Who in your office seems to really enjoy—and excel—at their work? What can you learn from them? People who like coming to work radiate positive energy, and their spirit can be infectious. Let the energy rub off on you. DETERMINE YOUR CAREER SIGNATURE If you had to write down one statement that would encom pass who you are (or want to be) professionally and personal ly, what would it say? Take some time to clarify your unique signature, and use this statement as a guiding force in pursuing what you want to do and whom you want to be. RECOONIZE WHAT вЂ�YOU CAN Al4O CANdOT CONTROL Write down the things that stress you out at work. Circle the ones you have control over, and cross out the ones you don’t. Vow to stop spending energy on the crossed-out items redirect your energy on finding solutions to the problems you can change. ments to your resume, which you should be updating regularly. CULTIVATE FRIENDSIIPS AT WORK Your coworkers can under stand and appreciate what life is like in your office better than anyone else. Take the time to develop friendly relationships with them. You’ll benefit per sonally and professionally from the time you invest in getting to know them. SEE THE BIG PICTURE AND ThE LITTLE PICTURES What is the big picture— your overall vision—for your professional life? Now what are the small daily steps or little pictures that will get you there? Make a small goal, like joining a professional organization or finding a mentor—something you can accomplish today. MAKE SURE YOU’RE ON THE RIGHT PATH Are you really doing what you want to do? Does what you think you should be doing interfere with what you want to be doing? None of the above suggestions will work if your career isn’t aligned with your true interests, personality traits and natural abilities. If a career assessment is in order, make this your first priority. opyrighr 2014 Monster Worldwide, Inc. All Rights Reserved.

Becoming famil iar with that role makes you an obvious choice for future pro motion. ACCOMPLISH PROJECTS THAT DIRECTLY AFFECT YOUR RESUME When taking on new proj ects, try to select those that will most likely benefit you. Be sure to quantify the results of your work and add these accomplish- How to Effectively Market Yourself for a Job When You’ve Been Long-Term Unemployed www.shrm.org For most people losing ajob is a devastating experience. Not finding one right away is even more discouragmg, hut the sooner you get started looking and the more dedicated you are, the more likely your search will be a positive experience. The Society for Human Resource Management (SHRM) is the largest HR association in the world, with more than 275,000 members, Our members, HR professionals in organizations representing all sizes and industries, recognize that as a result of the years-lonq economic downturn, an unprecedented number of Americans have been unemployed for six months or more. We are educating our members on how to review their organization’s hiring procedures to ensure they do not intentionally or inadvertently c;ive less consideration to certain job candidates based solely on their unemployment status. Nevertheless, having a resume with gaps in work history can pose a challenge for thejob seeker. This challenge is not insurmountable, and SHRM members offer the following advice to help you, as ajob seeker, put your best foot forward. Step 1: Approach yourjob search as though it WERE yourjob Devote time— up to eight hoUrs a day—to finding a job. Set a schedule with daily tasks in order to establish a structured routine. Having a schedule makes people more efficient. Giving yourself a deadline by, say, blocking off 2 p.m. to 4 p.m. to work on an application or make your calls is better than saying you’ll get around to it as soon as you can. Try to maintain a flexible attitude, and project a willingness to learn. Your old job/career may not exist anymore, so you may need to develop new skills or apply the old ones in a different way. If you are feeling stuck, seek out groups of people who are in the same situation. Many community centers, religious entities and other organizations host meetings for job seekers. It may help you to discuss your efforts with others. Step 2: Stay active by engaging in productive activities Find activities to show that you are still engaged in your community and focused on gaining skills and qualifications. Activities also fill time on your resume, showing employers that you haven’t been stagnant since you left your previous position. • Personal Development or Professional Development Classes at a community college, university or training program can keep you up-to-date with technology and other trends in your field so that you’ll be informed when you do go on interviews or even chat informally with employers. Many educational institutions have career centers with well-connected advisors who know what employers are looking for and who is hiring. Consider a training program or temporary position, offered by many employers, Short-term positions give you a chance to test-drive a specific job or company. Development Through Volunteer Engagement Volunteering can involve much more than planting trees and painting buildings; it’s also a great way to learn new skills. You can design a website, organize an event, write letters on behalf of the organization or have any variety of other responsibilities. Volunteering can give you exposure to a new field or allow you to try out a new career. Volunteering at a specific organization you want to work for is an excellent way to get your foot in the door and make a notable first impression. If you can show you are a valuable and effective volunteer, employers will think you may make a valuable and effective employee. Volunteering enables you to expand your network. By working on a cause you are passionate about, you will meet likeminded people, some of whom may be able to help with yourjob search. Volunteering is a fun and valuable way to break up the monotony and provide you with an anchor while you look for a job. It can also provide a sense of accomplishment. Step 3: Update and revise your resume Understand the online application process before submitting your resume. Applying for ajob today requires that you tailor your resume to the specific position. Before submitting your resume, make sure it contains some of the key words that are outlined in the job description. Use terms that apply to the specific job and/or industry. Sprinkling in newer terms can show that you’re current with the technology and other trends of the field, Include accomplishments—both at work and outside of it—so employers can see how you’ve done, notjust what you’ve clone. Quantify your experiences, Use numbers to communicate changes or improvements you have made over a specific period. Examples include quantitative gains in production or performance, notable customer satisfaction, greater organizational performance, cost reductions or cost avoidance. Include legitimate volunteer or nontraditional work experience, to eliminate or decrease any gaps in employment. If your formal education occurred more than 10 years ago, consider taking dates off and adding other training or education Ou have obtained since then. Step 4: Network, network, network Networking is still the most effective way to find out about jobs, Prepare your “elevator speech,” in which you describe your skills and career goals in two minutes. Preparing ahead helps you take advantage of opportunities to talk, at a moment’s notice, with someone who may be in a position to help you, • Reach out to family, friends, neighbors and associates. Use your connections to your advantage. The more people you know, the better your chances of finding and landing a job. Talk vvith your previous employers and co-workers. People who have seen you at work before and are in your field of experience can be the best people to know. Seek out community groups for assistance, including those for unemployed people, who help one another with leads, references and other support. Programs, both formal and informal, have started in communities nationwide. If you can’t find a group in your community, start one. With nearly a quarter of Americans laid off at some point because of the recession, you do not have to be alone in your search. Be willing to help others in your groups. Paying it forward can be of great benefit when your colleagues get settled in a new role. Not only will it help you, but it looks great to businesses if you let them know you started a group or are active in one that helps people in the community. • Use online sites, including Linkedln. If you don’t have a L.inkedln profile, create one. Employers use this site to look for new talent so make sure your profile contains keywords that are relevant to jobs that interest you. Use the search function on Linkedln to find profiles of people seeking positions similar to what you are interested in pursuinn Then use these profiles as templates to modi/ your profile. See vvhat companies your connections and their connections have worked for. Those who worked at a company a few years ago likely still know people who work there. Join groups that apply to you. Many industries, regions and even companies have their own pages. These are a great source of information and a way to keep current with what’s happening in a particular field. • Reach out to employers that interest you. Many companies host open houses or exhibitions to showcase their work. If it looks interesting to you, check it out. Ask queshons and make some contacts, too. If you want to talk with someone at an organization, go for it. Reach out to a firm you have great interest in and ask to come in and learn more about it. Don’t mention employment in the first conversation. A good first impression can lead to that important referral or helpful information. • Look for local nonprofit or government organizations that can help you with yourjob search. Never pay an organization to find you a job—most likely it is not a legitimate business. Take advantage of the services that government-funded Career One Stop centers offer. These centers provide free assistance to job seekers. More information is available at httpj/www.careeronestop.org/ Learn about local nonprofit organizations serving the long-term unemployed. The programs are as varied as the cornrriunities they serve and can be researched online. Step 5: Become More Technologically Proficient It’s no secret that many employers look up their applicants online. While most people know to keep offensive pictures and posts off Facehook, you can take this a step further by creating a brand for yourself. Use Linkedln as your primary tool, but earn more about how to effectively use Twitter and Facebook as a means of “branding yourself.” Social networks are an excellent way to interact with potential employers. Sharing information via a status update on Linkedin or re-tweeting or tweeting at an employer or sending messages on Facebook with relevant information can get you noticed. Scanning blogs on relevant topics allows you to stay up-to-date with the industry and hear different perspectives. Commenting on blogs and engaging with their authors are other valuable methods of gaining contacts in the field. Joining listserves is a great way to crowdsource your information gathering. People often mention opportunities they heard of or topics they think are worth sharing. Although it’s efficient to comb through the larger online job boards, it’s worth noting that many listings receive hundreds of applicants. One way to find less visible opportunities is to research what companies you might like to work for and search their sites for vacancies. It takes longer to do this, but you mayjust find that perfect under-the-radar opportunity. Following up your application with a message to the company contact person further enhances your potential of being noticed. If you need help in navigating the world of computers or even getting access to a computer consider a local library. Most libraries have computers available to the public, and some offer free resources like classes or coaching. Career One-Stops also offer classes and computers for public use. Step 6: Prepare for your future interview Get fit by exercising and eating right. When you feel good you will come across well in an interview. Consider how you look. A good haircut and neat, clean business attire are a way to say “I respect myself.” You don’t have to buy expensive suits if you don’t have the budget; just scour the resale shops, and make sure the clothes fit and are clean and ironed. Address gaps in your resume’s work history upfront. Offering an explanation prevents a potential employer from making assumptions that may be incorrect. Similarly, take the opportunity to address any possible concerns about your being overqualified for the position. When a candidate raises the issue, this can help put an employer’s mind at ease. Never underestimate the value of a handwritten note. Send one to each person who takes time to meet with you in an interview or with whom you have a key networking conversation. In a high-tech world, the high-touch approach always gets noticed. Online Resource for the Job Seeker www.shrm.org/workforcereadiness —SHRM developed this webpage to house information about workforce readiness and tong term unemployment, Information on this site can give you a better understanding of how HR professionals view these issues. a Job nterviw Г Qlzsh cnnfrfi11gWtPr For many job seekers, the”Do you have any questions for me?” portion of an interview signals the end is ncai It’s tempting to just sav”no” and get out of the hot seat as quickly as possible, but fight that urge. Asking questions shows the interviewer you were listening while they were talking, con veVs your interest in the corn pany and helps you decide if it’s where you want to work. After all, interviews are a two way street the hiring team decides whether you’re what they want in an employee, and you decide if the company culture and specific role are where you want to devote your time and energy for the foreseeable future. -- Rere are five essenfial ques tions you should ak in a job interview, 1. “how do yno define suc cess for this Job?” This question helps you get a clear understanding of what the job entails and the expc tations the company will have for you in it, says John Crossman, president of real estate management firm Crossman & Company. For example, if you’re apply ing for a sales position, an answer to this question might be that you acquire 10 new cli ents in the next 90 days. It may also he that you upsell current custoГ±iers by 25 per cent over 90 days. As a candi date, you’ll want to know whether you’ll be cold-calling prospects or focusing on exist ing customers before you make your decision. 2. SomethIng spedc about the organization It’s always a reat idea to ask a question that shows you did your research before the inter view says Chris Delaney, author of”The 73 Rules of Influencing the Interview.” He recommends building rapport and showcasing your research skills with a technique he calls “share expertise, ask ques tion.” “If the interviewer responds that they love how they can make their yoga class each night and log back onto work from home if needed, then you know the company takes work-life balance seriously,” she explains. - His example: “1 recently read that the organization is look ing to break into Europe. What do you foresee as the main barrier with this proj ect?” 3.”Can I have a quick tour?” See also: “Can I meet some people I’d be working with?” Both questipns will get you out of the interview room and allow you to get a better look at the office. This will give you a chance to gauge co-worker interaction, workspace design (lighting, noise level, cleanli ness) and the detartment as a whole, says Michelle Corner, practice area leader and vice president at the Messina Group, a staffing consulting firm. Requesting a tour or a quick introduction to potential co workers also “signals to the interviewer that a candidate is taking a vested interest in the position,” she says. 4. “What is your favorite part about working here?” “Companies, like job candi dates, are putting their best foot forward during the inter view process, often highlight ing all of their corporate perks. By asking evetv person you interview with what they like best about working at the company you’ll get a better sense of the perks that people regularly experience versus the perks that live only on paper,” explains Sherry Dixon, a senior vice president at Adecco Staffing US. s. “Do you see any reason I might not be a good 1t for this postion?” It may seem counterintuitive to inquire about your poten tial flaws during an intervie but it’s actually a great thing to bring up at the end of the interview says ?.torgan Nich ols, managig partner at Chi cago-based recruiting and staffing firm Torre & Gray. “This gives you an opportuni ty to know that the interview er is thinking about you and gives you a last chance to clar ify any misconceptions they may have or elaborate further on something important.” WORKFORCE INVESTMENT ACT What is WIA? “WIN’ stands for the “Workforce Investment Act.” This legislation, passed by Congress in 1998, provides federal funds for employment and training assistance. WIA services help people improve their opportunities for getting a job, increase their wages, and provides money for job skills training. The WIA program is administered by a Workforce Investment Boards (or WIB) in each region of CT. WIA procedures vary depending on the region of the state in which a person lives. But the basic procedure is: • Contact a CT Works office and tell staff that you interested in WIA training. • You will be scheduled for a WIA orientation/overview session. After the WIA orientation/overview session, you will be scheduled for another meeting to see whether you are eligible for WIA. For adults, WIA funds are divided into 2 categories. If you meet the requirements of one of these categories, you are eligible. Adult have low income and lack job skills that are currently in demand, or Dislocated Worker have been or will be laid off because of the current economic situation (as opposed to leaving a job for personal reasons) and need job skills that are currently in demand. — — If you are eligible, a case manager will review training options with you. Please note that WIA funds are limited. Even if you are eligible, training funds are not guaranteed Get Started — visit a CT Works Office or go to: workforcealflance. biz 1 www — I U iU вЂ�-вЂ�i’ 0: Oi 12:0 1’ 1/ q1,,j0:0 0c В° 12 i2,.i cUolU Wrlh d 1 r’ Ni” ii : N’ ovo4, OH \вЂ�./ 1110 12 • 0•,. 1.

The Employment and Training program was created by Congress in 1987 as a means to assist able-bodied clients in obtaining employment. From the start, the purpose of the Employment and Training program has been to help SNAP households gain skills that will increase self-sufficiency. States are allowed flexibility in designing and operating their Employment and Training programs. If you are receiving SNAP in Connecticut, and not receiving financial assistance from the Temporary Family Assistance program, you may be eligible to participate in one of the following activities; English as a Second Language, General Equivalency Diploma, Adult Basic Education, Work Experience or Structured Job Search Skill Training. The Connecticut Employment and Training program also offers short term vocational programs at several area colleges and nonprofit providers. DSS has currently partnered with ten organizations to provide these Employment and Training program services. They are: i. Career Resources Bridgeport 203-610-8677 2.

The Working Group, which included individuals representing the business and institutional community, labor, elected leaders, city officials, foundations, the workforce system, un- and under-employed residents, and youth, advocated for a new program called вЂ�New Haven Works” that would partner with employers, service providers and the workforce system to match qualified New Haven residents to regional job opportunities. New Haven Works seeks to grow the local economy and improve economic stability in all communities by providing employers with a trained and qualified workforce and connecting residents to goodjobs. Established in October 2012, New Haven Works is governed by an independent board of directors, and will be funded by public and private sources. New Haven Works opened an office at 205 Whitney Avenue —just one year after the first convening of the Board of Aldermen’s Working Group! E rnpl , 0 0.

We offer a welcoming environment providing case management for lowincome and homeless clients. NCD is run entirely by volunteers, with cooperation from several gracious community partners. No Closed Doors aims to harness the skills of college students to break down barriers and open doors between people and the resources that they need to succeed. We believe that everyone in our community should have access to the services, opportunities and attention they need to achieve personal success. Our service is unique in that it has no eligibility requirements for clients. We do not turn anyone away, unless they pose a security threat to themselves, other clients or volunteers. In addition, there is no limit on the services that clients can receive from us. All of our volunteers are passionate and friendly college students, eager to provide flexible and comprehensive assistance that complements the more specialized services provided by other community organizations.

North Dakota experiences all four seasons and has amp le activities to enjoy in each. A common misconception is that it always is cold in North Dakota. It comes as a surprise to many that North Dakota actually has a remarkably long temperate season, inclu ding beautiful sunny days in June, when the sun rises before 6 a.m. and sets after 9:30 p.m. Below are average temperatures and what to expect from each season. Summer Perfect for all outdoor activities. The days are warm, sometimes even hot, but nights are cool enough for a restful sleep. Expect an average temperatu re of 82В° Fahrenheit (28’ Celsius). Fall The first frost, which usually occurs about midSeptember, signals the end of summer season for many North Dakotans as the days are pleasantly warm , the nights cool and precipitation light. Expect an average temperature of 66В° Fahrenheit (19В° Celsius). Winter Winter is a grand season to many North Dakotans. It is the season for snowmobiling in open, uncrowded fields and for such vigorous outdoor recre ation as ice skating, ice hockey, cross country skiing and snowshoeing. Expect an average temperature of 24В° Fahrenheit (-4В° Celsius). Spring Spring is a time of rapid change in North Dako ta. It seems that almost overnight in late March or early April the snow mantle melts, the fertile soils dry and field preparations begins.

Literacy Volunteers of Greater New Haven is a non-profit organization that has been active in the region since 1976. Last year Literacy Volunteers supported 231 volunteer tutors who delivered free tutoring to more than 1246 adult students at 37 sites. Literacy Volunteers is supported by Connecticut Department of Education funds, private foundations and community grants (CDBG dollars, the Community Foundation of Greater New Haven, United Way of Meriden/Wallingford, the Valley United Way, the Valley Community Foundation) as well as donations from individuals and businesses. How Does the Program Work? Adults who speak English but need help learning to read at a higher level work together in small groups. The groups meet twice a week with trained volunteer tutors using an established curriculum with workbooks. A computer software program provides additional help. Non-English speaking (ESOL or English for Speakers of Other Languages) adults also work with tutors in small group settings. Classes are held weekly at a variety of sites throughout the area. Day and night time classes are offered. All classes are free and are set up on a semester basis. Who are the Tutors? Tutors come from many different backgrounds men and women of all ages and diverse life experiences. They may be retired, have full-time jobs or they may be students. Many have some college experience. Only a few have previously taught. What tutors have in common is their desire to help someone improve his or her life. — Tutors go through an Orientation and Training Program before they start tutoring. They receive ongoing support from Literacy Volunteers program managers, who help the tutors prepare lessons, test students and locate helpful resource materials.
