If you are unemployed, underemployed or re-employed and want to develop your career, this workshop series might just be the answer for you! The series is now in it's 4th run and the results have been impressive. We've achieved a 50% or higher placement rate, generated networking opportunities and increased confidence.

Transitions

I invite you to join me in a series of six workshops designed to support and motivate job seekers. As you know if you are unemployed, it can be pretty lonely out there, and hard to stay motivated during a job search.

Purpose

Provide an outlet for emotional support during transition while assisting in job search.

Promote discussion and education on job search topics with real situations

Develop new network contacts and practice job search techniques to gain new skills.

Encourage a sense of accountability and mentorship with other participants

How is this different from other Networking or Job Clubs?

Participants commit to attending all sessions, unless re-employed

Workshop size is limited to 20 people

Curriculum is built on personal development exercises with assignments to complete

Participants will be asked to commit to assisting other workshop members

Series Topics:

Getting Started: where are you now and where do you want to go?

Fear of Success: What is it and how to get rid of it?

Rediscovery: Strengths and Direction

Nuts & Bolts of an Effective Job Search: resume, cover letters, research, plan of action

Networking to Your Style: Find a way to network that works for you

Interviewing and Negotiation: Land the job and get what you deserve

Benefits to Participants

Addresses emotional needs of connection and purpose during a difficult transition

Re-focuses anger and depression into more positive, future-oriented mindset

Goal-oriented, progress building program will increase job search knowledge, offer opportunities to gain new skills and increase confidence
