Job Search In A Digital Age Workshop

Job Search In A Digital Age Workshop The philosophy of a job for life no longer exists. Finding that perfect job used to be simpler. You sent or dropped off a resume ~ each resume was reviewed by a real person ~ interviews were conducted by human beings. Thats so old school. The internet, job boards, social media, and now artificial intelligence have disrupted the HR sector and radically altered the recruitment and selection process. Employers will Google you and review your social media profiles before making a final hiring decision, possibly even before inviting you to an interview. Conducting an effective job search in a digital age involves understanding digital recruitment tools and trends, how your social media presence can help or hinder your quest for a new job and developing a networking plan to penetrate the hidden job market. This is a 2-hour interactive job search workshop leading participants through the evolution of job search. Attendees will learn about the job search wheel and start the process of creating key job search tools including a job search plan, target employer list, elevator speech, and networking business card. The role of social media including active versus static sites will be explored culminating in a self-assessment of your LinkedIn profile with advice to improve your profile strength and achieve ALL STAR status. Participants will leave feeling prepared to launch an aggressive and strategic job search embracing social media, in-person and online networking, contingency and retained recruiters to land quicker in their ideal job.
