Kathryn Troutman, President, Resume Place, Inc.
March 24, 2020
People all over the world are experiencing the impact of COVID-19. Federal employees and military personnel are not traveling and many are working from home now. Just yesterday, the Office of Management and Budget recommended that all government agencies “minimize face-to-face interactions.”
The Resume Place is continuing to meet
your training needs with online classes.
We’ve been teaching online for more than 15 years for every major government agency. Our online classes are very popular and receive great reviews. We’ve been industry leaders in online teaching because of our commitment to teach LIVE courses with interactive conversation and activities.
Resume Place instructors can keep employees motivated, inspired, hopeful for their careers — even in this time of concern. If you’ve already scheduled in-person workshops with Resume Place, they can be converted to online training for the Spring and Summer. You can contact us if we haven’t spoken already. Reach out to [email protected].
The government is hiring!
USAJOBS job announcements are still posted. Federal human resources specialists and managers are still working. In fact, we just noticed four interesting new COVID-19 related job announcements from the Small Business Administration’s Office of Disaster Assistance: Loan Specialist, Disaster Recovery Specialist, Paralegal Specialist, and Attorney Advisor. The government needs employees to implement VA, FDA, CDC, FEMA, HHS, CMS, SSA, USACE and other agency missions to support the pandemic response.
