Solano WIB Job Fair
The Solano Workforce Investment Board held a Job Fair October 6. The event was very well organized and very well attended.  We took over 170 resumes and we were impressed with the caliber of people attending.  If you left us a resume we are working hard to match you with your next employer! 
The event was a great opportunity for us to see what works for job seekers, since we saw lots of people.  (more)

Job Hunting 101:  Following up
 

Following up with people you meet, whether at interviews, networking or other social events is the single most important thing you can do to assure your success in job hunting.   There are some simple rules to follow that will "lock down" the impression you make with the people you meet, and maximize your chances for success.

Interviews

You're one of the lucky ones invited to an interview.  Regardless of how you thought things went, the most important thing you can do is cement your impression with the interviewer.  Maybe things were a little bumpy; perhaps you weren't satisfied with the way you handled some items in the interview. On the other hand, maybe you thought you were fantastic.

Regardless, good manners demand that you show respect for your interviewer's time.  Email thank-yous are a quick and painless way to show your professionalism.  They also offer the added benefit of giving you the opportunity to fill in any gaps you might have left behind in the interview.  Do this the same day as the interview; don't give your interviewer a chance to let your impression drift into the background.

By sundown the next day be sure to have a handwritten thank you note in the mail.  Thank the interviewer for the opportunity to discuss the position.
