'Tis the season! ....for networking. You always hear "Nov/Dec is a hard time to find a job". Nothing could be further from the truth! Most companies have new budgets starting on Jan 1 & thus hiring managers are getting notified NOW what those budgets will look like for 2024. So, you may not be seeing job postings, but trust me, managers are interviewing & making hiring decisions. Want to know how to tackle this process? Set up a free 30 minute session with me to get started!

Welcome to my scheduling page. Please follow the instructions to add an event to my calendar.

When you are ready to actively look for a new position let the world know - but only the ones you want to know. When adding "Open to Work" on your LinkedIn profile, you have two options. 1. Private mode allows only recruiters to see the selection. 2. Public allows all to see it! If you are currently employed, be sure to use the Private setting!

When writing bullet points for your resume - don't tell the reader what you did - tell them what you accomplished.

EXAMPLE:
What you did: "Walked across the street"
What you accomplished: "Added 30 steps towards daily goal, increased my heart rate to X and saved a dog from getting hit by an oncoming car while walking across the street"

Picture of my cutie for attention!!
