EMPLOYMENT SERVICES
The Section has a wide variety of resources available in the employment services arena. The Assistant Executive Director handles the administration of these services. CareerLinks (through PGALinks.com) is The PGA of America's complimentary employment referral service that deals with management positions. PGA Professionals can post and view job openings and resumes. PGA Jobfinder is an online resume and job-posting service for assisting employers and job seekers with non-management position such as assistants, teaching professionals, golf shop help, starters, rangers, etc.
SUBJECT MATTER EXPERTS are listed on the left side of this page. They are PGA professionals who have volunteered to serve as resources for you if you have questions/concerns in their field of expertise. Please utilize their services- this program only works if you take advantage of it!

STAY ACTIVE WITH CAREERLINKS
To remain active in CareerLinks, PGA Professionals are required to update their information every eighteen months. The information previously captured in the PGA Membership Survey makes up an individual's CareerLinks "ProFile." Once enrolled, PGA Professionals will be notified via email about employment opportunities that match their preferences and an employer's search criteria. Facilities wanting to list a management position should contact the Assistant Executive Director (540-720-7420 ext. 125).
The regional PGA Career Consultants are very valuable resources.

Any member or apprentice seeking a review of their resume should contact the Employment Services department at The PGA (800-314-2713).
Custom reports concerning compensation can be generated from the Section's compensation database for MAPGA members and apprentices who have completed and returned their Section Compensation Survey. The usefulness of these reports relies on the accuracy of the information provided by Section members and apprentices. These databases contain information on golf operations and professional compensation which can be queried in many different fashions. Confidential information is provided without identifying facilities or individuals.
