Exploring & Discovering Resources
2. Choose the option for the type of resource needed.
Support Services: Opportunities or services in the community that will support a need or barrier a candidate faces (i.e. food support, mental health care, transportation assistance, etc.)
Training Programs: A longer-term job training program (i.e. a Microsoft certificate program, welding program, CNA program, etc.)
Job Opportunities: Open job opportunities that have been curated by RiseKit or our employer partners specifically for your participants.
Event: A one-time or short-term session, (i.e. a job fair, pop-up event, resume class, etc.)
2. To simplify the search, each resource type has the option for searching a keyword (like "resume", "customer service", or "clothing") or to sort by most or least recently added, tuition cost, and salary. Each resource type also has filtering options.
To help narrow down the resources you will see, your filters automatically show resources within 15 miles of your organization.
3. Once you have identified a possible resource to send to a candidate, click View Details to see more information about the resource.
If you want to visit the website for the resource, click the title of the resource.

5. Invited candidates will receive a text and/or email notification that a resource has been shared with them.
