Job help needed?
Goodwill Northeast Florida hosts 6 Job Junction sites to help people find jobs. This includes resume writing, business card printing, job search assistance, and job placement within Goodwill. Goodwill currently hires almost 700 employees through its lawn service company, laundry service, Goodwill stores, and ecommerce unit. Yes, you can buy from Goodwill online through Amazon.com!
Goodwill also assists with employment of ex-felons and disabled persons, which is an important resource for some of our families. For people without phones, they also host a “hello line” which provides a call-back number for job applications. When the employer calls back, instead of getting, “Hello, this is Goodwill Job Junction,” a person answers, “Hello” just like you are calling someone’s home!
The sites are located at:
- Northside: 4243 Dunn Avenue
- Westside: 4527 Lenox Ave
- Jax Beach: 1036 Beach Blvd
