The new website's Resource Menu also offers job-hunting tips and a host of business resources. A special "Business Spotlight" celebrates businesses that are working with SENET to diversity their workforces. Those business range from McDonald's, Golden Coral and Fastlane Services to Polo Ralph Lauren, the Carolina Panthers and the NC Department of Motor Vehicles.
