State will hold career seminar at Suffolk University

Have you recently lost a job? Or worry that you're about to get a pink slip? Then the state may have an all-day seminar for you.

Working with Suffolk University, the Massachusetts Executive Office of Labor and Workforce Development has scheduled a career seminar for Friday, June 26, at the Sawyer Building, 8 Ashburton Place, Boston.

The seminar, which is set to run from 9 a.m. until 4 p.m., will focus on such issues as alternative job search methods, managing personal finances, and techniques for keeping stress under control, the executive office said in a media advisory.

The seminar is open to the public, but folks need to reserve a spot in advance. Reservations can be made by sending an e-mail to eparrish@suffolk.edu.
