Job Search Assignment:

Whatever field of work a person chooses to seek employment in, it is important to understand how to find and evaluate potential job opportunities for your unique abilities, skills, and interests. This assignment will help you to become familiar with a part of the job search process in the field of Human Services.

In this Job Search Assignment, you will find four job postings (online or hard-copy print) for Human Services positions and craft a submission for an expanded discussion formatted assignment.  You are to compose a word document that does the following things:

  • Present the four job postings in a list. Each position will include the job title and the name of the organization or company that has posted it.
  • The source of each job posting must be clearly identified as a web link or hard-copy source (e.g., paper newspaper or magazine) that shows how to contact the potential employer.
  • Choose two of the four job postings to compare in detail. In this written comparison, include job responsibilities, hours of work, compensation, level of education or training required, and any other significant information that is offered.
  • Explain your personal perceptions of the pros and cons of each of these two positions.
