Are you good with computers? Do you have experience writing stellar resumes? Do you have a knack for teaching? Then come lend a hand at the Albany Public Library's Washington Avenue branch!

We are looking for one committed volunteer to assist with our one on one resume and computer skills sessions on Wednesday afternoons from 1pm-3pm. The desired volunteer will be comfortable helping people at all stages of resume writing - usually from the very beginning, as well as updating a resume and helping someone save resumes. They should also be able to help people with other computer skills, such as using the internet, using Microsoft office, and email troubleshooting.

The volunteer should be patient, understanding, and, preferably, have experience teaching adults.

Come give back to your community in a fun and meaningful way.
