The Job Success program, offered at no cost to participants, was created to help men and women in central Ohio reach a new level of financial stability for themselves and their families. JOB SUCCESS is employer-driven and designed to prepare participants to take full advantage of current employer openings in the Columbus area.

The first step to JOB SUCCESS is to attend an information session here at the Guild that lasts about an hour to hear all about the program and the current open positions qualifications and requirements.

To be considered for JOB SUCCESS after attending an information session, the next steps are to complete the program application and attend an orientation and selection interview. Upon acceptance into the program, you will be scheduled for a 30 hour course designed to prepare you to pursue current and future employment opportunities that lead to a livable wage job.

The JOB SUCCESS classroom component is a 30 hour comprehensive work readiness training curriculum that meets five times a week for two weeks. It is designed to guide participants toward clarifying their career direction along with providing a solid foundation of employment-specific skills. Participants receive instruction and guidance in a group setting provided by a staff of experienced employment professionals. Columbus area employers from a variety of industry sectors recruit participants that successfully complete this process.

Participation Requirements

JOB SUCCESS program applicants must meet the following requirements:

• Be willing to go to work; commit to one job for at least one year
• Be capable of going to work; meet all of the employer qualifications
• Be drug-free and able to pass a drug screen

After successfully completing the 30-hour classroom training component, you will have opportunities to participate in the Job Search phase here at the Guild, as well as networking with other members of JOB SUCCESS. When you become a member of JOB SUCCESS you will have ongoing access to current and future job openings, Guild staff and community resources that can help.
