It's hard being out of work whether you've been downsized, fired or your company is going out of business or merging. And it is not easy to find another job if you are stuck in a dead-end job.

The Catholic Employment Network (CEN) can help. This web site, and the CEN member-parish job search groups, will provide you with spiritual support and help improve your job search skills.

The CEN web site has three distinct sections to provide everything you need for your job search. At the top of each page on the site there are links to the main page of the three sections:

"CEN" - Member parish job search groups and other free CEN services including upcoming Job Search Workshops.
Five more parishes joined CEN in May bringing the total to 15 CEN Chapters.

"Ask God for Help" - Prayers and Spiritual Support for your job search.

"Job Search Skills" - Job Search Manual and CEN Workshop presentations.

Click on the links at the top of each page to go from section to section. Each section has its own list of links on its left navigation bar. There is no particular order to look at this site - choose a link and start exploring. The site map may be a good place to start if you are looking for something specific.

A calendar has been added to the web site. All CEN Workshops and meetings are included. A link to the calendar now appears on the list of links at the top of each page.
