VIRTUAL: "Ultimate" Job Seeker Skills – Novel Ways to Research Your Next Position PUBLIC WORKSHOP

"Ultimate" Job Seeker Skills – Novel Ways to Research Your Next Position

Led by: CTC Coach Mike Munger and Assistant Recruiting Manager, MAKE Corporation

CTC Coach Mike Munger brings his "recruiter" perspective to job search. 

It’s said that over 70% of jobs are filled without recruiters or job sites like LinkedIn. While networking is a large piece of that, so is seeking out and finding jobs posted on small/medium size career pages. Those posting have less applicants and may be more willing to train new skills than anything a recruiter or job site will have.

Make the pivot

• What better way to make a career change than see how it’s done! We’ll dive into job titles and browse hundreds of profiles to understand what companies are willing to train specific skill sets or hire folks in transition.

Ensure you can compete

• We’ll talk about how to view the details of like experienced individuals, offering key insights into strength of summary section, experience bullet points, and overall searchability when we dive into LinkedIn’s premier recruiter.

Easy networking steps

• Once we identify and opportunity or target employer, we’ll talk about execution and how to use free features on LinkedIn to send a specific message that effortlessly allows you to leave your comfort zone and “ask for it” all from the seat of your couch.
