Library brings employment supports to Sylvan Lake

Mar 31, 2022 | 3:44 PM

Job seekers in Sylvan Lake can improve their resumes at Sylvan Lake Municipal Library with help from Career Leap Red Deer.

The library is hosting monthly events where the Career Leap team will be available to review résumés and offer expert advice.

On April 14th, May 12th, and June 16th, Career Leap Red Deer will be at the library from 1:00 to 2:00 p.m. Citizens can drop in with their résumés to be seen on a first come, first served basis.

Those without access to a printer at home can print their resumes at the library for 25 cents for each black and white page.

Sylvan Lake Municipal Library programmer Corrie Brown said, “Career Leap works one-on-one to help people make their résumés the best they can be. They are great with people, easy to communicate with, and very community-minded. We have missed having them in the library and are so happy to be able to resume this partnership with them to better serve our community.”
