The next workshop in this series will be held this Tuesday, October 18th and will focus on online presence and personal branding.

Much like technology over the last 25 years, social media continues its steep trend of merging with business. In addition, the visual impact and content strength of your approach forms an impression known as your personal brand. Your personal branding in-person, online and on your written documents can truly impact people looking for new hires.

Making the efforts to increase your brand’s impact as a consistent expression of self-marketing and good communication to employers, human resources representatives and decision makers will take your job search to another level.

Prepare introductions, increase your visual impact and improve your social media presence and activity, including improving your LinkedIn profile.

This workshop will be fully virtual and will be held from 4:45 to 6:15 pm PT and registration will be open until 11:59 pm pm on Monday, October 17th.
