Using the NPC Career Center platform, registered job seekers can post resumes, cover letters, and create personalized job alerts and career profiles that lead employers directly to them. In addition to the job board, users can access professional resources to strengthen their candidacy, including reference checks, resume writing, and individualized career coaching. National Press Club members enjoy a 50% discount on all professional resources for job seekers.

The NPC Career Center also serves as a valuable resource hub for employers seeking to hire the industry's top talent. Employers can post jobs quickly and easily, manage applications, search the anonymous resume bank of qualified candidates, and set up resume alerts for candidates that match their key criteria. This puts the employer in control of finding quality talent, instead of waiting for the right candidates to find them.

With a NPC Career Center Employer Account, organizations can attract top talent with comprehensive branding solution packages, and a variety of job posting enhancement options. All employer resources in the NPC Career Center come at a discount for members of the National Press Club, and all employers who purchase a job post within the first month of the NPC Career Center's launch will receive a 15% discount on job postings.
