At La Passerelle we believe people are more than the sum of their resumes. We’re here to help you bridge the gap from where you are now to where you want to be.
At La Passerelle, we understand that the loss of a job means a lot more than just a loss of income. With unemployment and under-employment come uncertainty, fear and a loss of identity. La Passerelle takes a big picture approach to your employment possibilities; focusing not only on your skills and abilities, but also who you are as a person, your values and passions.
A leader in job search and career transition, La Passerelle’s comprehensive FREE 12-week program helps you to identify and hone your existing talents, learn new skills and provides the tools and mentoring you need to successfully re-enter the workforce. We go far beyond a polished up resume. We take the time to address the emotional issues that inevitably accompany professionals and executives experiencing loss of self-identity and career turmoil.
Specifically designed to maximize your employment opportunities, La Passerelle provides assistance through:
• Job-loss counseling
• One-on-one coaching
• Interactive workshops with experts and guest speakers
• Interview skills development
• Career marketing materials (resumes, cover letters)
• Job-search assistance
• Networking opportunities
• Access to computers, faxes and essential tools
• Social media skills for job search and differentiation
• Much, much more
We’ve helped thousands of people just like you find competitive, fulfilling careers. In fact, at least three out of every four of our participants have found employment every year since our inception in 1990.
