JobScout, a web and mobile platform to teach job skills, is launching the "A Cup of Joe and a Job Search" tour of California libraries and organizations in June. The tour led by Paul Jackson aims to introduce more Californians to JobScout's tools for effective online job searching, as 9% of the state remains unemployed. Stops are scheduled in June across Northern and Southern California, and tour updates will be posted on JobScout's social media. The goal is providing meaningful assistance to both new and experienced online jobseekers.

JOBSCOUT HITS THE ROAD WITH ITS “A CUP OF JOE AND A JOB SEARCH” TOUR
Eager to Get Californians Back to Work, Job Skills Platform
JobScout Plans a Road Trip Across California to Get People Back to Work
San Francisco, CA – It’s summertime and, for many, that means summer vacation.
While many will hit the road to take a vacation, others, nearly 9 percent of Californians, are still
looking for work. Since these Californians may not be able to hit the road, JobScout is coming
to them, taking a road trip to visit libraries and community organizations across California to
teach people how to use the JobScout platform.
JobScout, the web and mobile tool designed to teach people how to use the Internet
effectively to find work, will hit the road during the month of June to reach as many California
jobseekers as possible. Taking the helm at the wheel will be JobScout’s Paul Jackson, who is
also leading the launch of JobScout’s Spanish language platform in September 2013.
“We’re passionate about finding users, which for us, translates to giving people
meaningful tools to find work,” said Jackson. “The economy’s tough, so we hope our road trip
will introduce a tool that can make finding a job a little easier.”
Jobseekers can find Paul and other members of the JobScout team at the following
locations during June:
