Jewish Vocational Service
Expands at New Quarters
Jewish Vocational Service, an
Allied Jewish Campaign support-
ed agency, announces its move to
new quarters at 822 Farwell
Bldg., 1249 Griswold, in order
to better extend its free service
to the job seekers and career
planners of the community.
The new office is accessible to
pUblie transportation lines. The
layout of offices for counselors,
staff psychologist, placement di-
rector and executives, running
oft a large central waiting room,
assures confidential and relaxed
interviews with clients.
Other facilities include a spe-
cial testing room, and an exten-
sive library on vocational oppor-
tunities and job requirements.
Young men and women planning
their careers utilize the library.
The picture shows one career
planner getting a few current
pamphlets.
The new quarters were se-
cured by the JVS housing com-
mittee. consisting of Samuel S.
Greenberg, Herbert D. Robinson
and William Gershenson. Robert
N. Janeway is president of the
agency and Albert Cohen is ex-
ecutive director.
JVS made 701 job placements
last year. Only the immensely
larger communities of New York
and Chicago have placed more
refugees on jobs since the begin-
ning of 1950. First priority on the
JVS program will continue to be
refugee placements, which light-
en the community's expenses for
support of new Americans.
A breakdown shows that 47
per cent of JVS placements in
1950 were in office and clerical
jobS, while 41 per cent wei e in
the trades, unskilled, s e m i-
skilled. Five per cent of the jobs
were in sales, 5 per cent in ser-
vice occupations, and 2 per cent
its professions. -
All told, nearly 3.000 Detroit-
• rs used JVS facilities last year.
Not just a job, but a job that
brings satisfaction is the goal of
JVS. Counselors assist applicants
to prepare for fields in which op-
portunities are greatest and in
which they will find most satis-
faction. Aptitude tests are ad-
ministered by a psychologist on
the staff, whenever indicated as
part of the counseling procedure.
Career planning is another of
the services offered by JVS.
Young people are helped to plan
their educational program on the
basis of their own aptitudes and
the outlook for job and school
opportunities.
