EXETER — Are you a student looking for your first summer job? Are you wondering what to put on your resume because you lack on-the-job experience? You might not realize that all of the valuable skills you have gained through your education, recreation- al activities and volunteer experi- ences can help you promote yourself to employers. Though you may not have all the work experience listed on the job posting, employers may still want to hire you. Instead of focusing on your lack of work histo- ry, try focusing on your transferable job skills. Transferable skills are sets of abil- ities needed for a broad range of jobs. You may have more career - related skills than you think. Things you do all the time may be great transferable job skills. Do you have a positive attitude? Can you communicate effec- tively? You may already have many skills employers find valuable. Where do you get transferable job skills? You may naturally be an enthusiastic or organized person. Skills are also gained over time by experiences you've had. For example, as a student you have probably become punctual and organized. If you have played a lot of sports, you have probably learned to work well as a team member and are goal oriented. Employers realize they need people with transfer- able skills to get the job done. This is your chance to get noticed! If you focus on your skills, employers will realize you can be a valuable employee. Some common transferable skills in high demand are: • problem solving and adaptability skills; • effective interpersonal communication skills; • organizational skills; • effective team work skills Define your strong points and build on them to pro- mote yourself to potential employers. Did you know there is an ever-increasing demand for a skilled and adaptable workforce? Your skills, talents, knowledge and creativity are key to your future success. Skill requirements are changing rapidly, which means you have to continue building your skills and knowledge. Summer jobs are a great way to help you develop your skills and get the work experience you need to prepare for the rapidly changing world of work. If you need help identifying your transferable skills, please contact the Exeter Human Resource Centre of Canada for Students (HRCC-S) at (519) 235-1711, or visit us on Tuesday and Thursday at 281 Main St., S., Exeter.

The great room has a gas fireplace and ample space for home entertainment equipment. A covered porch entry protects the front door from foul weather.
