I began my day researching jobs and posting on CTP. It took me a little longer than usual because I wanted to find good roles I would’ve applied for. Next, I continued work on the EFG list looking in Tulare County and checking to see if all the resources are posted. I had a meeting with Carrie and we went over a new assignment, researching rehabilitation centers and posting them on a spreadsheet.
What I did today
I learned new stuff in Sheets and learned to merge mail. Yay..

What I Did Today
Today I began by researching and summarizing job listings to post to CTP’s skill center page. Later on Carrie found another job listing which she requested to be posted as well, and it was linked from the Department of Rehabilitation, so it’s nice to see openings in DOR offices as well. After finishing job postings, I spent time on practicing my typing speed, and managed to get my speed-up from yesterday with higher accuracy too. I’m still not quite back to where I was before the holidays, but I’m closer now. I looked into trying to find CTP Alumni profiles on LinkedIn for a little while, and then had a meeting with Carrie. During the meeting, I brought up recent stagnation with finding any new companies or B-Corps to add to the outreach catalog, so Carrie suggested a new work assignment for me and other associates to work on. I worked on the new assignment for the rest of the time, including setting up a new tab in the spreadsheet, and Carrie even added a document with instructions. I’m happy to have a new assignment to work on in the coming days.
