Title: Finding Employees
For over 15 years GenesisJobs has helped hundreds of businesses look for, find, and keep good entry-level, non-professional employees. There is no charge for our services to your company. Our applicants represent a variety of city residents from different backgrounds who share a common goal: the desire to work. We carefully identify and verify job skills and check references. Our applicants are screened, qualified and ready to work. Careful and long-term follow through by our counselors helps businesses keep good employees.

Some of our satisfied customers include Allfirst, The Elkridge Club, Loyola College, Miles & Stockbridge, P.A.; Struever Bros., Eccles & Rouse, Inc., University of Maryland Medical System, The Wackenhut Corporation, Yellow Transportation, Inc. Positions that were filled include cashier, data entry, construction, food service, health care worker, mail clerk, light industrial, office and commercial cleaning, parking attendant, security guard, and many more.

GenesisJobs employs a three-phased approach in preparing applicants for their job search:

Phase 1: Job-Readiness Coaching
Each GenesisJobs client is assigned a personal Job-Readiness Counselor. Clients meet with their Counselors on a weekly basis.

Phase 2: Employer Partnership
The GenesisJobs process includes contacting area employers in the network on behalf of clients, arranging interviews, and sharing post-interview feedback from potential employers.

Phase 3: Post-Hire Follow-Up
Once a client obtains a position, a GenesisJobs volunteer Follow-Up Counselor initiates and maintains regular and frequent contact for a full year. The Counselor and client together anticipate and address the opportunities and challenges that may enhance job performance and job satisfaction.

The Follow-Up aspect of the GenesisJobs process contributes to a job retention rate of 50% at the same job through the first year of employment, seven times the national average for this level of employment.

"With GenesisJob's assistance, we are able to locate applicants we would not normally be able to find. Their follow-up counseling contributes to the successful placement of applicants as well. GenesisJobs does a great job!"

The innovative programs and services offered by GenesisJobs are unduplicated in our community. We are committed to the employer's satisfaction. GenesisJobs is economic development: It is a market-driven approach, not a hand-out, not charity, not social work. GenesisJobs' applicants are men and women who self-select - they call us. They want to work.
