GenesisJobs is a non-profit partnership of 500 companies, 80 faith communities, and volunteers providing compassionate support to unemployed adults in their search for entry-level, non-professional jobs in metropolitan Baltimore. Our mission is to guide men and women along their personal paths by helping them seek, find, and keep suitable, fulfilling employment. These men and women desire good work but lack adequate education, work skills, experience, and access to opportunities.

Operating much like an executive search firm, GenesisJobs brings together employers and the candidates who have demonstrated through our coaching process the qualities necessary for employment - attendance, punctuality, and retention. Since its inception in 1985, GenesisJobs has helped over 3500 people find jobs.
