WATERTOWN — The Children’s Home of Jefferson County (CHJC) has a message for those who may be newly out of work or underemployed due to the coronavirus (COVID-19) crisis: It is hiring. 

“During this tumultuous time, as we come together to deal with … COVID-19, CHJC remains keenly aware of our inherent responsibility to serve the members of our community in need of critical services,” the organization said in a March 24 news release. “We also realize the current pandemic has left several members of our community underemployed or unemployed, creating extreme hardships for themselves and their families.”

The agency said it is looking to fill open essential staff positions to provide critical care and services, including direct-care professionals for its residential programs, and care coordinators for both its youth and adult programs. CHJC job requirements depend upon the position, and include degrees of all levels from high-school diploma/GED to advanced secondary degrees.

Those interested in applying for an open CHJC position can download its job application from its website (www.chjc.org), complete it, and email it along with their current résumé to its HR department at hr@chjc.org. Several options for remote phone and video-based interviews are available.
