How to Create and Edit a Job Opportunity

Why does it matter?

When it comes to supporting program participant’s, it’s safe to say their main goal is to find a job opportunity that will allow them to grow more financial stable. By utilizing RiseKit to share good opportunities, the time it takes to accomplish this goal should be drastically reduced at scale. Job Opportunities are open positions that can be shared with participants through RiseKit. Job Opportunities do not include Support Services, Events, or Job Training Programs.

Navigation:

To access the Training Program section of the Resources page do the following:

  1. Login to your RiseKit account at Staff Portal

  2. Move your mouse toward the left-hand navigation.

  3. You should see links that show the following options

    • Organization
