The job search process can be incredibly turbulent and stressful. How can you keep your cool during these highs and lows? You can actually build your resilience by shifting some of your attention to your well-being. Our 2-part series, Resilience During the Job Search, will provide you with tools and practices to help you manage your stress, improve your interviews, help you with important decision making, and keep you motivated.

Note: You do not need to attend Part 1 in order to participate in this workshop.

Part 2: Understanding the Neuroscience of Stress

Can stress harm your job search? Unfortunately, the answer is yes. When our nervous system goes into a fight, flight, or freeze state, we see fewer options, which can compromise our problem-solving abilities.

By shifting a little focus to your well-being, you can enter a calmer, clear-headed, optimal place. This mindset shift can not only help you during your networking and interviewing, but also help give you the necessary perseverance and motivation to keep going.

During this workshop you’ll learn about the neuroscience of stress. Our goal is to help you be at your best, even during times of uncertainty and change.
