The Rostraver Public Library wants to help you find a job. 

In an effort to keep Rostraver residents employed, a free program is available twice a month for those needing resume assistance or interviewing practice. 

“I think that we’re helping the community invest in its own workforce development and we’re providing that service here so that the community can rely on each other,” Library director Noelle Cross said. 

The program, which kicked off this summer, is made possible through Career Links of Westmoreland County –– a free, job preparedness organization that helps people attain the skills necessary to get jobs in the line of work they are interested in.
