Need assistance with your resume?
Thank you for showing interest in our employment page. We are here to assist you with necessary resources, including links and information regarding documentation. As a refugee, finding a job in the USA can be challenging especially if you lack tools like a computer.
For a small fee, we encourage you to reach out for support, and we will help guide you through the process of creating a resume and accessing job opportunities.
To prepare for a job interview, bring essential documents like your resume, references, and a list of questions for the interviewer to make a strong impression.
Essential Items To Take To Your Inverview:
Multiple Copies of Your Resume:
​
Always bring at least three to five copies of your resume. This ensures that you can provide a copy to each interviewer and have extras in case of any unexpected circumstances.
​​References:
​
Prepare a list of professional references, including previous managers, supervisors, or colleagues who can vouch for your skills and work ethic. Bring five copies of this list as well.
Job Description:
​
Print out the job description and review it before the interview. Having a copy allows you to refer to specific responsibilities and qualifications during the discussion.
Questions for the Interviewer:
Prepare thoughtful questions to ask the interviewer about the company culture, team dynamics, or growth opportunities. This shows your genuine interest in the role.
Notebook and Pen:
​
Bring a notebook and pen to take notes during the interview. This demonstrates that you are engaged and allows you to jot down important information.
Portfolio/Certificates or Work:
If applicable, bring a portfolio showcasing your work or relevant projects. This is particularly beneficial for creative or technical roles.
Water and Tissues:
Having a bottle of water can help prevent dry mouth during the interview, and tissues can be useful if you have allergies or a cold.
Professional Bag:
​
Use a professional-looking bag or briefcase to carry your documents. Avoid overly casual bags, as they may not convey the right impression.
