Advice sessions and work clubs
Advice sessions
Weekly advice sessions are held at Balderstone Library and the
Central Library in Rochdale to help get people back into work.
Every week, in conjunction with the governments National Careers
Service, experienced staff are on hand to provide free advice on
all aspects of job hunting, and help with the essential skills
you’ll need like CV writing, putting an application together and
interview techniques.
There is also general careers advice if you’re looking for a
change in direction or help with finding new skills.
Sessions run every Tuesday at The Central Library and each
Thursday at Balderstone Library from 9.30am until 3pm.
To book an appointment, just call The National Careers Service
on 01706 646471 or call into the library. Whilst in the library you
can also check out their new
‘Skills and Employment’ range of books, to help you get that
new job.
Work clubs
At work clubs jobseekers can get advice and support on
finding employment.
The clubs give people in Middleton the chance to meet others
looking for work, build new contacts, share job hunting experiences
and get advice on interview techniques, CVs and even volunteering
opportunities.
One of the best ways to find another job is through friends,
family or social networks. During the sessions people get
help looking for work by swapping ideas and talking to guest
speakers including people from local businesses, about
opportunities in the area.
Work Clubs take place at Langley Library and Darnhill Library.
