Employment Immersion July Virtual Workshop

Employment Immersion July Virtual Workshop


Jul 23

July's workshop runs weekdays from July 6 to 31.

There IS a job market! Job seekers who are blind and have low vision are in demand to work remotely. Let LightHouse support you on your pathway to employment in these challenging times.

Our award-winning Employment Immersion program is now available virtually. Now is the time to join us via the Zoom conferencing platform. The program begins the first Monday of every month and runs each weekday. This comprehensive month-long training is specifically designed for people who are blind and have low vision. We are committed to providing group and individual guidance from the fundamentals of job search, to the complexities of disclosure of one’s disability with pride and confidence, to instruction on job search techniques, to honing interview skills. Most importantly, this program focuses on the participant’s individual job goals.

To learn more about this exciting opportunity, please contact the team through email: eiteam@lighthouse-sf.org.

Jul 23

We’re a few months into this new COVID-19 employment landscape and each one of us in the 30% & Growing crew brings a different experience to the table. We’ve shared everything from the challenge of recognizing instability in our livelihood that necessitated an out of state move to successful second round interviews and placement in seemingly impossible times. How has the employment game changed for the blind and low vision community in these unusual and challenging times? We’re going to gather some insight from our very own in-house experts on this very subject in July—the LightHouse Employment Immersion team will be our very special guest, so if you’re a veteran 30%er, an in-transition 30%er, or an aspiring 30%er to be, please join us for this very special edition of 30% & Growing to get your finger on the pulse of what’s new in employment for the blind and low vision community.

For July only, 30% is happening a little later, so join your 30% & Growing crew on the fourth Thursday, July 23 from 6:00 p.m. to 8:00 p.m. For Zoom access info, RSVP to Adult Program Coordinator Serena Olsen at SOlsen@lighthouse-sf.org or 415-694-7316. Then grab a bite to eat and your favorite beverage and join the virtual networking party.
