Hi, Everyone,

I am working with our local Service Canada office on an application for =
a Career Focus project this fall.  Career Focus is a youth employment =
program designed to help recent post-secondary graduates find their =
first career-related work experience in their field (it's not a summer =
student program, but the goals are similar).  The program co-ordinator =
I'm working with has asked me the following questions, and I'm hoping =
some of you can help:

Can you provide me with information on the need to provide this work =
experience to Museum or Heritage field post secondary graduates?  Is it =
difficult for these graduates to find employment?  If it is, why?

Thanks in advance for any input!

Tammy

PS - Also a heads-up - there will be a formal job posting for three =
exhibit curators coming soon!
