Social Media for Jobseekers

Social Media has become an integral part of finding a job for most people seeking out office-based roles. It offers job seekers a powerful tool to expand on who they are and what they offer. It provides them with the opportunity to stand out. Social Media also acts as a modern day "rolodex", allowing you to network at a scale that cannot be matched with face to face meetings.

So, the question I ask all job seekers is "Are you ready?". Most answer they don't know. My sessions vary from one to two hours. They are fast-paced and provide ample time for questions. 

Schedule

Monday, September 18th 6:30 -8:00pm at Ottawa Public Library Emerald Plaza branch 1547 Merivale Road  Map Location
The Hidden Job Market 
What exactly is the hidden job market?  Did you know that many openings are filled before employers even advertise them?  How do you become the person that employers contact?  How do you create visibility so that employers remember you and think of you when they have an opening?  

​Week of Nov 6-10, 2017 at YMCA 180 Argyle St. (4th floor)  Map Location
