Start your week with a community of other job seekers who support, encourage, motivate, and learn from each other through their job searches. Job Seekers Connection energizes and inspires participants by sharing valuable strategies and techniques from professional career coaches, recruiters, and Human Resources representatives.
 

In a tough job market, we are constrained with the choices available. Yet, life requires certain necessities to thrive and be successful in our job search and job responsibilities.

In this workshop we discuss how we articulate and align our values to the roles we seek.

We discuss how to identify our job search negotiables and non-negotiables. We discuss strategies for staying firm or flexible in the job search process. We share strategies for success.
