Networking Online: Tips for Building a Professional Profile

REGISTER [ZOOM]

Description: According to Forbes, 70-80% of all open positions are not advertised and remain part of the "hidden job market" in which hiring managers and recruiters fill positions before they are ever posted. Because of this phenomenon, it is increasingly important to make connections and communicate with employers early in the hiring process. In this workshop, you will learn how to identify organizations and opportunities to get involved, how to research industry professionals and potential best-fit companies, and how to maintain an active and up-to-date online presence. Ken Bohrer, Steinbright Career Development Center, will facilitate this hands-on workshop.
