Join us for the opening reception for Pho to gra phs., an exhibit of work from SCC’s student, staff and faculty photographers now showing in the PUB gallery on campus at Shoreline Community College. The reception is Thurs., June 25 from 3-5 p.m. in the PUB gallery. The reception will include light refreshments, and hand bound publications of the exhibit will be available for sale.
The Photo Club fully encouraged and supported Pho to gra phs. by conducting mat cutting workshops and best presentation practices. Frames and other materials were provided through grant funding from SCC’s Student Leadership Center to ensure that the cost of materials would not discourage any students from participating. They hope to make this gallery show an annual event.
Pho to gra phs. will be showing in the gallery in the Pagoda Union Building on campus at Shoreline Community College from now until August 14. Gallery hours are Mon-Thurs, 10 a.m. – 4 p.m.

Join us this Thurs., June 25 from 1-2:30 p.m. in the Workforce Education Center on the ground floor of FOSS (5000 building) for a FREE talk on cover letters.
When you find a job you’d like to apply for, how do you approach writing your cover letter? If you’re like most people, it’s with a groan of apprehension rather than a skip and hop of elation. But you don’t have to be a wordsmith to write a great cover letter, you just need to understand what motives the employer has in hiring for the position.
Please join us as we discuss, show off and strategize our cover letters. (Bring your best letter!) Professional editor, Mary Keils, will be on hand to offer her expertise. We’ll of course have coffee and treats available, compliments of Central Market. Have a friend or family member looking for work? Please bring them along!
And as always, Good Luck Out There!

Join us this Thurs., June 18 from 1-2:30 p.m. in the ground floor of the FOSS building (5000) for this week’s Job Seekers’ Roundtable. We’ll tackle how to dress for an interview during the hotter and sometimes more casual months of summer with a workshop by Myriam Mampengu, an Employment Specialist with Goodwill of Puget Sound.
A fun one to kick off summer: When we think of job interview preparation, a common rule of thumb is to investigate the dress code of the potential workplace, and dress equal or just a notch above those doing the interviewing. However, the workplace culture of the Pacific Northwest has been described as unique from the rest of the country (especially in summer!), not only with attire, but also expression, diversity, use of office space, breaks, and employee interaction, to name just a few.
Employment Specialist, Goodwill of Puget Sound, Myriam Mampengu, will share insights on how workplaces have evolved in these areas, and what to consider on how to assimilate with younger workers. Please join us for some coffee, iced tea and discussion as we consider Pacific Northwest workplace culture.

This Fri., June 5 from 1:30-2:30 join us on the ground floor of the FOSS building for a Job Seekers’ Roundtable on transferable skills.
Transferable skills are those you have acquired during any activity in your life — jobs, classes, projects, parenting, hobbies, sports, virtually anything — that are transferable and applicable to what you want to do in your next job. For example, almost every resume I have seen includes the bulleted item “strong communication skills.” But what exactly does that mean? Forms and styles of written communication? Great storyteller? Conveying a positive and likable self-image? All the above?
We often fall into the trap of describing ourselves as a job title, rather than who we really are, and what inspires or motivates us. The fact is, the skills we’ve learned from a lifetime of “you do this, I give you a check,” are just a fraction of everything that makes each one of us unique.
Join us for a discussion about how we might assign our skills to a broader variety of jobs and careers.
As per usual: Strong coffee and sweet treats will be provided, all compliments of Central Market.
And also as usual – Good Luck Out There!
