Each workshop covers the following topics:

Your Personal Brand

It’s hard to take action if you’re not really sure what it is you want to do.  Have you ever asked yourself:
• How can I transfer my skills and experience to a new industry or different role?
• What type of job will really fulfill me and how do I find it?
• How do I market myself to potential employers if I’ve been out of the workforce for a number of years?

In this session you will:
• Define and realize the unique contributions you make and the impact you have
• Become more comfortable talking about yourself and your skills
• Create clarity on career options you’d like to pursue

Resume Resonance

Your resume is the ultimate personal marketing tool.  Learn how to create a winning document that will get you noticed by hiring managers and recruiters. Whether your resume is covered in dust or you’re diligent about keeping it up-to-date, you’ll gain new tips and ideas on how to present yourself on paper. And you’ll be amazed at what you have already accomplished in your life, prepping you for even greater achievements.

In this session you will:
• Identify key accomplishments to highlight on your resume
• Learn to optimize keywords, increasing the chances of your application being short-listed by recruitment software and HR professionals
• Come away with templates, tools and practical advice to create momentum in your job search

Linked Into Networking

For many people, networking evokes images of uncomfortable cocktail parties, sweaty handshakes and trying to keep your smile fresh when you really just want to go home. We get it. Take a fresh look at networking and be amazed at how much networking you already do, and enjoy! This workshop is focused on making connections vs. spamming the world with your business card, so come and learn how to harness the power of your existing network to create a successful job search.

In this session you will:
• Develop and practice your “elevator pitch” so it comes off naturally and with confidence
• Discover how and where to connect with potential employers or clients, both in person and through social networking websites.
