Summary of the
Tools
Life Values Assessment and What Matters Most
- Two versions of basic life values assessment, one for adults and one
for youth.
The Masquerade - A self-esteem raising activity
designed to honor the many roles a job seeker plays outside the realm of
the job search and the individual strengths and qualities they will
bring to any employment opportunity.
Beyond Barriers and Overcoming Roadblocks - A
must for use with individuals with multiple barriers to employment in
seeing beyond the roadblocks in their thinking and trusting in their
ability to overcome difficult circumstances.
Work Needs and Desires - A job developer’s
favorite as it requires the job seeker to name their “bottom line” in
terms of wages, benefits, hours, etc.
Hopes and Aspirations - A terrific goal-setting
tool which helps to focus nebulous hopes and desires into doable,
specific and realistic aspirations!
Beyond Openings to Opportunities - For those
using the employment proposal, here is the detailed, step-by-step
instructions for job seekers to write their own!
The Scavenger Hunt - A wonderful way to get job
seekers uncovering essential information about businesses in their local
job market.
Networking - A great approach to identifying
the people within one’s personal network and the step-by-step
instructions for making contact with them.
You Be the Judge - One of the most important
yet most ignored part of interview preparation is the art of asking good
questions. This activity includes a wide sampling of questions an
applicant may ask in an interview – as well as a sampling of the kinds
of questions that should not be asked!
