Did you know that most jobs in this type of economy are “hidden?” That means networking and using social media are some of the best techniques to uncover opportunities. Join Abby Grant, a former recruiter and career service professional, now at the Boston Business Journal (BBJ), to discuss unique tips, strategies and techniques to invigorate your job search. We will discuss how to “think outside the box” and how being original will help you stand out above other candidates. Each attendee will receive a current issue of the BBJ and the opportunity to win a current copy of BBJ’s “Book of Lists.”

After completing this workshop you will be able to:

  1. Conduct an energized and confident job search
  2. Use social media and news articles to raise your profile and impress hiring managers
  3. Identify which companies are expanding and hiring by reading the newspaper and the BBJ
  4. Use news articles to craft dynamic questions to ask during interviews that indicate your unlimited curiosity and capacity for the job you are applying for

Limited to 20 participants.
