Getting Around "Job-Itis" and "Title-Itis" to Land your Next Position

Zoom: https://us02web.zoom.us/j/81276432708/
We will focus on two common afflictions of job applicants: “Job-Itis” and “Title-Itis.” Both maladies over-emphasize job seekers’ expectations that their most recent job function and title will be viable targets for their next position. Job functions and roles are morphing into new identities. The rapid changes are difficult to adapt to, and many job seekers may conclude they will be moving ahead with a modified job function and renamed title, often with new requirements. We will discuss the need for applicants to remain grounded by taking inventory of their career assets and being extra perceptive in interpreting employers’ job postings. Now may be the time to expand searches beyond accustomed functions and titles. What about staying attuned to industry trends and companies as never before – important! Additional ways to gain confidence and stand out are to improve networking proficiencies and strengthen personal and professional presence. In our interactive workshop you will be encouraged to ask questions, share insights, and connect with others who are facing job search challenges.

Let's inspire and strengthen each other with our insights. The themes that drive resume effectiveness include showing your strengths, emphasizing problems you can solve, and highlighting your potential to add value. You will learn to include challenges you have met and accomplishments that have achieved goals. Attendees typically raise questions about handling work gaps and transitioning to a new industry, new level, new job function, new degree/certification, and more.
