CHURCH JOB SEARCH AID OFFERED

Job-seekers will have the opportunity to meet face-to-face with a human resources or job search professional when three Catholic churches in La Grange and Western Springs host a joint resume review program at the St. Cletus Education Building from 9 to 11 a.m. Saturday, Oct. 25.

The 20-minute review sessions will offer area residents suggestions on improving the descriptions of their objectives, education and work history and related resume topics.

Business pros will explain the current resume style, how to make them key-word friendly, targeted, clear and concise and of a professional appearance, how to format such documents and make them focused on accomplishments.

The program -- to be held inside the flagpole entrance of the school at 600 W. 55th St., La Grange, is a collaboration between St. John of the Cross in Western Springs, St. Cletus and St. Francis Xavier, also in La Grange.
