Opportunities for job seekers are one click away as CCIL extends its bank of resources to include free online access to CAREERS, the city's new online application system.  CCIL is one of the designated locations where candidates can search for city job opportunities and apply for multiple positions using an online profile and without using a single sheet of paper.

"Our new online system gives applicants greater access to available job postings within the City of Chicago and allows them to apply for positions with greater ease and efficiency," said Michelle Y. Burton, Acting Commissioner of the Department of Human Resources.  "Partnering with the Chicago Christian Industrial League in our outreach efforts will ensure that our CAREERS website is accessible to more people than ever before."

The CAREERS website, www.cityofchicago.org/CAREERS, can be accessed anytime and anywhere.  Candidates create a User ID and password allowing ongoing site use and the ability of searching for jobs; completing a candidate application; receiving automatic updated job postings and creating a candidate profile.  CCIL's Center for Workforce Development staff is trained in helping new internet users navigate the city's online application system.
