Contact Us
GenesisJobs is a non-profit partnership of 500 companies, 80 faith communities, and volunteers providing compassionate support to unemployed adults in their search for entry-level, non-professional jobs in metropolitan Baltimore. Our mission is to guide men and women along their personal paths by helping them seek, find, and keep suitable, fulfilling employment. These men and women desire good work but lack adequate education, work skills, experience, and access to opportunities.
Operating much like an executive search firm, GenesisJobs brings together employers and the candidates who have demonstrated through our coaching process the qualities necessary for employment - attendance, punctuality, and retention. Since its inception in 1985, GenesisJobs has helped over 3500 people find jobs.
Our Business Community Relationships
With no government funding and no fees, GenesisJobs' support comes solely through private, non-governmental means. Hundreds of Baltimore companies supply jobs, volunteers, funds and services to GenesisJobs. Each year the network is expanded to ensure the very best opportunities are made available to GenesisJobs clients.
Our Atmosphere
GenesisJobs is located in a two-story former church rectory with meeting rooms that are attractively furnished and comfortable. Believing that individuals tend to conduct themselves in accordance with the manner in which they are treated, we work hard to maintain an atmosphere that is at once warm, welcoming, and business-like.
Our Underlying Spirit
Quite simply stated, all that GenesisJobs offers is characterized by a respect for the dignity of the individual, and compassion for the difficult circumstances in which any unemployed individual finds himself or herself. To have a job can be the genesis for essential self-esteem.
Our Process
From the telephone receptionist who first speaks to candidates to the follow-up counselors and workshop trainers that enhance their career paths, GenesisJobs guides and supports the job seeker throughout our process. Keeping the process manageable and assisting every step of the way allows for a succession of successes that encourage the candidates in their efforts.
Quality support and practical help in the process of looking for, finding and keeping a good job is essential to GenesisJobs' clients. Our partners are enthusiastic, our participants are thriving and volunteers are lining up to be part of the excitement.
