Support Prosperity Employment Outreach Mission

If you’re ready to take the next step in your career but aren’t sure where to start, the 3 Cups of Coffee program can help.

Sponsored by the Permian Basin Society for Human Resource Management (PB SHRM), this program connects job seekers with a mentor who will guide them through their career journey. Whether you are a recent graduate, a seasoned professional seeking new opportunities, or navigating a career change, 3 Cups of Coffee provides personalized support to help you move forward.

Through three one-hour, in-person mentoring sessions, participants work with a mentor to create a customized career plan while building professional connections. Completion of these sessions is required to receive a professional resume and access to Prosperity Employment Outreach’s full range of services.

Sometimes, the right connection is all it takes to open the door to your next opportunity. 3 Cups of Coffee helps make those connections, strengthens your network, and equips you with the tools to approach your job search with confidence.
