Susan Kennedy of Career Treking, a career counseling firm for college students and grads, returns to CollegeRecruiter.com STAR Webinars with a fascinating analysis of the many steps college seniors and recent grads should take in maximizing the effectiveness of their job search and entry into the workplace, despite a tight market.
Presenting employment statistics, hiring trends, and a review of industries anticipating tremendous growth over the next 2 decades, Kennedy lays out winning job search plans, advocating that the timing is right for new grads to identify and take steps towards winning those perfect jobs that they have dreamed of attaining. Doing so requires an awareness of not only the qualifications one has, but those that are lacking as well; and, with that realization, a plan can be set into place - in even this most challenging of economies - to close the skills gap in moving you career forward.
Highlights of the webinar include:
* Setting your career direction
* Reality checking your "dream" career
* Casting a wide net in your search
* Related jobs lead to desired careers
* Convert profiles to careers online
* Filling gaps in your career plan
* Jobs fueled by the Stimulus Package
* Robust industries (now - 2030)
* Location, Location, Location
* Networking via LinkedIn and Twitter
* Best connections to job opportunities
* Crafting a targeted job search plan
* Putting target research on auto-pilot
* Shadowing, internships, volunteering
* Job change frequency and the "Recession Compensation Gap"
Like the other 3 webinars videos released by CollegeRecruiter.com to coincide with and promote the release of the Guerrilla Job Search System Home Study Course DVD (http://tinyurl.com/crjobsearch), this webinar stands on its own as an information packed self-help resource that will dramatically improve your chances at getting the job you want in these very competitive times in which we live.
While Susan admits that, "job searching is a life skill that takes a lifetime to perfect," she endorses the more rapid attainment of those skills by employing knowledge gained by others who have been there and are willing to share of their own experiences.
Career service officers, students recent grads and job candidates are urged to join Susan Kennedy for a 45 minute webinar that presents hiring statistics, in depth job search planning, case studies, examination of search skills, and an overview of industries that are already primed for success over the coming decades.
