CareerConnection
Job Center Kiosk
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.
Features/Benefits
Job seekers can fill out
a QuickAp (job seeker profile application) by using the simple touch
screen. Applications can be completed in less than 4 minutes! 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.
Job Printout and Application
Receipts: Users can make a print of any job for convenient follow-up.
This will allow the job seeker to provide proof of application for
a specific job opportunity. Application receipts allow for on-site
tracking and accountability.

have to register or have a resume to use the kiosk? No.
Job seekers never have to register. Nor is a resume required.
