Q. What is CareerLinks?

A. CareerLinks is The PGA of America's complimentary em-

ployment referral service that notifies PGA Professionals

about employment opportunities that meet their employment

preferences and qualifications.

The most valuable part of CareerLinks is the team of regional

PGA Employment Services Consultants, whose goal is to

serve as the official hiring resource for industry employers.

Complimentary services provided by the Consultants through

CareerLinks include needs analysis, compensation statistics,

hiring process assistance, hiring tools, an employment refer-

ral service and much more.

The second most valuable component of CareerLinks is the

state-of-the art, web-based database that contains valuable

employment information for more than 16,500 active PGA

Professionals. Information includes work history, operational

experience and future employment preferences.

Q. How do PGA Professionals Enroll in

CareerLinks?

A. To enroll in CareerLinks, PGA Professionals must com-

plete their PGA CareerLinks Profile and indicate that they

wish to participate in CareerLinks. To remain active in Ca-

reerLinks, PGA Professionals are required to update their

information every two years. Once enrolled in the program,

PGA Professionals will be notified about employment oppor-

tunities that match their employment preferences and an

employer's search criteria.

PGA EMPLOYMENT SERVICES Q. How does CareerLinks Work?

A. PGA Employment Services Consultants work with employ-

ers to help them determine the skills and experience that

would best qualify candidates for the position. Once the

search criteria are determined, the information is entered into

the CareerLinks database. CareerLinks instantaneously

searches through the database of "ProFiles," and identifies

PGA Professionals who meet the search criteria.

Identified Professionals are notified via e-mail about the posi-

tion. If they are interested and wish to apply, they are request-

ed to visit a Web site to retrieve the job application infor-

mation. It is important that PGA Professionals register for the

position by indicating, "SENDING RESUME," if they intend to

apply. Those who register as a CareerLinks applicant then

forward their cover letter and resume to the employer.

The employer screens and interviews candidates and makes

a hiring decision.

PGA Employment Consultants

The PGA has Employment Consultants who serve as the

employment resource for PGA Professionals in their respec-

tive regions. Their mission is to positively impact PGA Profes-

sionals’ careers, assist employers, foster win-win employment

relationships and promote the hiring of PGA members.
