How Libraries Help Job Seekers Get Hired

The current state of the U.S. workforce is marked by a significant worker shortage . Despite there being 8.9 million open jobs, only 6.5 million unemployed workers are available to fill them. This gap between job openings and available workers persists across various industries and states. Pandemic-induced early retirements, childcare constraints, and financial support during the crisis have left the nation with a deficit of workers . In addition, the pandemic has accelerated automation, requiring many workers to adapt. More displaced workers will need different skills to remain employed.

Public libraries can play a crucial role in supporting workforce development by offering free job and career services. These include upskilling programs, résumé development, computer access, interview preparation, workshops and seminars. Libraries looking to augment their collections to address the needs of today’s job seekers and career changers should consider the following five activities:

1. Exploring New Career Options and Entrepreneurship

The economic turmoil created by COVID-19 led some workers to reassess their careers . Using resources such as Job & Career Accelerator , patrons can research growth industries, take skills and interests assessments to find ideal career paths, and explore more than 1,000 occupations ― including civilian jobs for those transitioning out of the military. They can also conduct real-time searches in a database of more than five million job postings.

Some patrons might consider pursuing a skilled trade given today’s skilled trade workforce shortage. BlueCareer is a workforce development platform that serves as a one-stop show for patrons to explore skilled trade industries, start their careers, connect with employers and more. Users can take personality and experience assessments to see which trade profession might be a good fit. They can also access up-to-date pay and career growth data and explore trade schools.

Other patrons might wish to explore the possibility of starting a small business, one that fills a need created by our post-pandemic world. EBSCO’s Entrepreneurial Mindset Training Course enables prospective entrepreneurs to learn the underlying beliefs and behaviors that empower ordinary people to achieve extraordinary things. The eight-module, self-paced course can help them develop the mindset they need to succeed in today’s rapidly changing world ― whether that means starting a business, pursuing a new career or becoming a better employee.

2. Boosting Job Skills

It’s never too late to develop new knowledge and skills. In doing so, individuals can make themselves stand out in the vast sea of job candidates. Encourage job seekers to brush up on their computer, internet and social media skills. LearningExpress Computer Skills Center offers dozens of video courses for those interested in learning popular software applications, such as Microsoft Excel and Adobe Photoshop. LearningExpress Library Complete also offers Amazon Web Services (AWS) training courses in a wide array of leading-edge technology topics. LearningExpress Library Complete also offers tutorials and practice sets to help job seekers build their math, writing and grammar skills. They’ll also find tutorials, e-books and practice tests to help them prepare for the GED® test, college admissions exams and occupational certification tests. They’ll even find a keyboarding tutorial to help them brush up on their typing skills. For those interested in pursuing a skilled trade, BlueCareer offers a variety of video and virtual training opportunities.

3. Creating a Stand-Out Resume and Cover Letter

To secure an interview, job seekers must create a resume and cover letter that will stand out among the competition. Not only should candidates be sure to format these documents properly, but they should also use dynamic and engaging keywords relevant to the position they’re seeking. Job & Career Accelerator ’s step-by-step resume and cover letter builders help job seekers create and publish the most effective resumes and cover letters possible. As they build these documents, users will find expert advice, easy-to-follow instructions, recommended keywords, and helpful samples to guide them through each step of the process.

4. Getting Comfortable with Virtual Job Interviews

The pandemic has led many employers to conduct initial interviews virtually. According to Forbes Contributor Joseph Liu , “You have to be able to bring the same level of enthusiasm, professionalism, and communication that you would to an in-person interview.” Remind job seekers to test out their videoconferencing software in advance of the scheduled interview. In 

addition, Job & Career Accelerator offers an “Interview with Confidence” tutorial which walks job seekers through the stages of the interview process and provides strategies to help them prepare.

5. Networking

According to 2018 research, the average job search takes about five months . In some industries, it could take longer, so job seekers need to expand their professional networks. Job & Career Accelerator offers a number of e-books with networking advice, “Networking and Informational Sample Letters,” “Social Networking for Business Success” and “Social Networking for Career Success.” In addition, users will find a helpful tutorial called, “Social Networking with Facebook, Twitter and LinkedIn.”

BGSU Student Employment Services gains support from the Work+ Collective Institute

Estimated Reading Time:  

Student employees and supervisors will benefit from a stream of new resources through this innovative, design-thinking-centered partnership.

Editor’s Note: This article was guest-written by Amanda Albaugh, a working learner at BGSU and an intern within the Michael and Sara Kuhlin Hub for Career Design and Connections. Amanda is a sophomore majoring in advertising with a minor in digital arts.

New and innovative opportunities have emerged at Bowling Green State University Student Employment Services with the recent acceptance of the student employment team — a group within the Michael and Sara Kuhlin Hub for Career Design and Connections — into the Work+ Collective Institute. The collaboration will develop a vision, commitment and strategy to redesign the working learner experience at BGSU. 

The Work+ Collective Institute is an organization that is revolutionizing what it means to be a working learner — a student who balances gaining an education while earning a paycheck.  

The institute places an emphasis on student satisfaction by integrating design thinking principles into its programs that will benefit BGSU. 

“A student's job on campus is a signature part of their college experience," said Steve Russell, associate vice president of corporate partnerships at BGSU and the executive director of the Kuhlin Hub.

#1 University in Ohio for Student Experience

Innovative engineering degrees, #1 public university in the midwest students would choose again for the fourth consecutive year.

"With BGSU at the forefront of delivering a world-class student experience, this represents the next innovative leap forward and affirms our commitment to providing intentional and inclusive on-campus employment opportunities aligned with Life Design principles.

“We aim to help every student feel like they belong, find purpose as working learners, and gain momentum towards achieving their future career aspirations.”

Working side by side with working learners and supervisors, the University’s student employment team in the Kuhlin Hub helps students prototype employment opportunities that will align with their strengths and interests. 

Students also are provided with easy-to-access tools and resources to guide them down a successful path, even beyond graduation. This helps the student employment team ensure that on-campus employment opportunities will equip students with the necessary experience and skills so they are career-ready once they graduate. 

The goal of the Work+ Collective Institute is to help working learners make the most of their employment so that it is not just another job — it is a valuable experience that gives students the confidence to launch a fulfilling career.  

These ideals and the Work+ Collective Institute were developed by Arizona State University in 2020. Since then, they have been joining forces with student employment teams at universities across the country. 

With help from the Career Design and Connections staff in the Kuhlin Hub, the student employment team at BGSU has been providing countless employment opportunities to help students jump-start their careers.  

As part of the collective, BGSU can create a network with other higher education institutions that have the same goals and aspirations. Together, the universities can encourage one another and share best practices regarding student employment.  

BGSU students will begin seeing these benefits soon.

On April 25, BGSU and the Work+ Collective Institute will co-host a discovery sprint on campus. The purpose of this sprint is to take a closer look at the current student employment culture at BGSU. A series of design-thinking exercises and in-depth discussions with students, supervisors, and faculty will take place throughout the day. Listening to feedback and empathizing with the student body is the crucial first step in reshaping the working learner experience at BGSU.   

News of the University’s acceptance into the Work+ Collective Institute coincided with National Student Employment Week, held April 8-12. Throughout the week, student employees across campus were thanked for their efforts and contributions to the University through activities and events. The 22nd Annual Student Employee Appreciation and Awards banquet was also held to recognize the exceptional achievements of both student employees and supervisors.

Student employees play a vital role at the University and providing them with the necessary support will help them showcase their capabilities and reach their full potential. The working learner experience revolves around the student, which is why fostering a meaningful journey for them is essential, and Student Employment Services’ new collaboration with the Work+ Collective Institute intends to help create the best student employment experience possible at BGSU.
