Avoid the Resume Junk Pile: Tactics for Effective Job Searching

About this session

Are you cultivating relationships as you grow your career? Or are you neglecting valuable connections without realizing that you’re letting leads slip through your fingers? Regardless of the state of the economy, the hiring balance tips with too many candidates, then tips with more jobs and back again. This see-saw never ends, but it remains true that having a strong network will support your entire career. Kelly will share best practices to feed your network, what to ask for, how to ask, and why you should do this, regardless of whether you’re actively job searching or not!

Kelly specializes in transitions as a career coach which is often the more challenging path to take and requires strategic planning throughout the marathon to get results. Kelly will share her Job Search Tracker Template to help you organize your job search efforts, plus her special secret! How to map and then plant the seeds for your network on LinkedIn, growing them into the leads (referrals and introductions) from your connections that will keep you out of the inbox and get you seen by a hiring manager!
