Welcome to the John Howard Society’s student blog. We, the summer students, Holly and Elizabeth, are here to offer you a fresh new perspective on what you can expect to gain from the services offered through the employment division of the John Howard Society. Consider this your formal invitation to visit us at the Welland Job Gym!

What’s the Job Gym, you ask? The Job Gym offers workshops, skill building, training and one-on-one counselling to improve your employment prospects. Who is the Job Gym for? EVERYONE, and it’s for free! Over the summer, we will be blogging about our experiences here and the different services the Job Gym has to offer. Come have some free coffee and find out if we have the missing puzzle piece to your job search!
