Capital IDEA, one of Central Texas’ most effective workforce development nonprofits, invests approximately $3 million a year in the education and skills development of low-income adults wanting to join the local workforce. Many of the adults we serve were working minimum-wage, dead-end jobs prior to starting Capital IDEA, and most are the first in their family to graduate from college. They are a group of inspiring, diverse, and highly motivated adults that employers highly value. For many, their career search will be the first time they create a professional resume and have a formal interview – both of which are critical to obtaining the “right” job. In order to build their confidence and help their chances in securing a great job, your expertise and time would be extremely beneficial.
The two primary ways in which AHRMA members can put their expertise to work in helping our graduates to be more successful in their job searches:
- Review and critique resumes
- Conduct mock interviews
Perhaps the best thing about these opportunities is the flexibility involved. You can make a big impact on your computer, in your office, whenever you want. Whether you have one hour a week, month, or quarter, Capital IDEA can work with you to design an engagement opportunity that is both feasible and satisfying.
These graduates will be completing their Associate’s Degrees in various Healthcare and High Tech careers. Based on my August and December graduates, I would really appreciate assistance from HR staff that hire in the following career areas: Healthcare, Automotive, Network Administration, Computer Aided Drafting, Video Game Programming and Renewable Energy.
If you are interested in volunteering your time to assist our graduates, you can follow the link below to our website to register your preferences for helping out.
If your company is interested in getting involved in a more significant way, perhaps as part of a Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) program, Capital IDEA has a successful history of establishing mutually beneficial and long-term Employer Partnerships.
