Prospect helps people get jobs. We’re a not-for-profit and registered charity, so while the bottom line can’t be ignored, it’s not our priority. Clients are.

**What does it take to do this job?**
- Post-secondary education in a relevant program. A Career Development professional designation is an asset
- Experienced in a similar role working with clients from varying populations (i.e., military, youth, people with disabilities, people with a wide range of mental health challenges)
- Experienced in pre-employment and essential skill development knowledge, such as: job search techniques to tap into the hidden job market; resume and cover letter development; and interviewing skills and techniques to prepare clients
- Innovative with the ability to take initiative
- Problem solving and critical thinking skills
- Intermediate skill level in Microsoft Office (Word, Outlook, PowerPoint, Excel)
