As the school year whines down, teens are being encouraged to apply for summer jobs now. The Woodstock Community Employment Centre says they have already place 189 students with jobs so far this year. Career Councilor Lisa Bell says the Employment Centre offers a $2 wage subsidy to potential employers. "It's for students between 15 and 30, they have to be looking for summer work and plan on returning to school in the fall. Basically what we can do is we can give students a marketing letter that tells potential employers that they're eligible for summer job service and the hope is that that will increase their chances of being hired." Bell says there are several full and part time jobs that come in daily including odd jobs for those students who just want to work a day here and there. She says the service has already placed more than 189 students with jobs this year.
