CareerConnection Job Center Kiosk/JOBS Icon

Overview

CareerConnection Job Center kiosks are located in high-traffic locations throughout the Hampton Roads area, including workforce centers, libraries and area colleges. The employment information advertised is from the Sunday's Virginian-Pilot newspaper (CareerConnection). Job seekers can always view, print and apply for jobs at the touch of a finger. There is no resume or registration required. The kiosk is quick and easy to complete.

Job seekers can now enjoy the convenience and ease-of-use they have come to rely on from kiosks directly from a computer desktop, which includes: complete kiosk functionality - view, print, email, text message, and apply for jobs. No resume or registration required by user.  No pop-ups or banner ads.  Note:  The JOBS Kiosk Program Icon is available on the computers located in the Student Employment Services Office, TCC Virginia Beach Campus, Kempsville Building, Room D-105.

Employers receive applications by email or fax (their choice). Job seeker profiles are faxed or emailed nightly from each terminal directly to the employer at no cost to the job seeker.
