OCHRS Career Center Volunteer Survey

OCHRS Career Center is a partnership between OCHRS and the Metro Library System (MLS).

Through this initiative OCHRS members will volunteer their time and HR talents at participating MLS locations to provide structured career services to members of their local community twice a month from September to November of 2026.

The goals of this volunteer program are to provide career services to members of our local community in places where they already go to seek career services, like the public library. In doing so we hope to strengthen community partnerships, enhance the visibility of OCHRS and our profession, and allow OCHRS members an opportunity to give back in a meaningful way, using skills that we already possess, in our own communities.

Each volunteer will facilitate a table related to one of the following topics;
1. How to create a resume
2. How to apply for a job
3. Interview preparation
4. Workplace professionalism
5. Q & A with HR
1.Are you interested in donating a small amount of time at a local library to assist community members with career services activites?
2.If you are interested in donating time, please list your name, phone number, and email address.
3.Does your employer allow you to donate time during work hours or provide Volunteer Time Off (VTO)?
4.Project event times will be set in advance. When would it be most convenient for you to donate time for this project?
5.Some of our event dates are already set. Please let us know if you can commit to one or more of these dates.(Required.)
6.MLS requires that all volunteers pass a standard criminal history background check provided at no cost to you or OCHRS. Do you agree to allow MLS to conduct your background check?
7.What do you think the greatest benefits of this program are?
Thank you for your time.

If you selected to volunteer in September we will be in touch towards the middle of August about your upcoming volunteer experience. We appreciate you.
