I never heard of some of these resources. This is a helpful list!
I’m very clearly biased, but you may want to include http://www.onedayonejob.com/ and http://www.onedayoneinternship.com/
Great listing, new resources!
Thank you – some of these I have not seen, and others I had forgotten about because there are so many. This will certainly be a great resource to share with job seekers, as a “go-to” starting point.
This list is very helpful!! Thanks for posting!
Thank you I have a place to start.
Great list especially for ex- offenders. Thank you so much!
very extensive list
This is really a great informational article at the right time. I am currently working on gathering information to do some career consulting for individuals that are having difficult times seeking employment due to a variety of barriers and I am excited to see what all I find with these resources. Thank you again. If you have any additional informational for jobs and careers for individuals with criminal convictions I would love to hear more. Currently the population I work with have a variety of criminal convictions and I am looking to guide them in the right direction to move forward from that barrier to have it just be a bump in the road.
Alisa,
I recommend researching non-profits in your area who may work specifically with ex-offenders. In Arizona, we have a few so those would be additional resources. However, they depend on your particular location.
Excellent work, and I’d share with my students here at FIU.
This list is very helpful and we will be sharing with our students. Thanks so much for your great work on this resource!
Great work! I’m including this list in our Career Readiness Plan.
Very Nice, Very Useful! Thank you for sharing.
I like the JobGeni
Great list, I will share with job seekers!
