About the program
We’ve talked a lot recently about the state of the job market and the challenges that job hunters are facing amid mass layoffs, shrinking company budgets, and general job insecurity. Now, let’s talk about how we can best represent ourselves on the job market by considering our personal branding, polishing our application materials, and talking through application strategies.
This session will include a mixture of short informational presentations about different application-related topics, followed by open group workshops of member materials. Please bring your interests, questions, and job application materials (resumes, cover letters, LinkedIn profiles, etc.) so you can leverage the collective knowledge and experience of the group to help you best represent yourself on the job market.
