Job hunting and preparing for interviews can feel a bit like a guessing game. What types of jobs can you look for, what kinds of jobs should you be looking for? Should you be using a recruiter? When you do land an interview, what are companies looking for? How can you stand out from the other candidates?

These are the questions that Jobgini is here to answer! In her upcoming event, Hacks to Your Dream Job, Gunjan Kuthiala will take a deep-dive look into how to be found by a recruiter, use their guidance to apply for the right jobs, and what preparations will make you stand out as a candidate. In this Seminar, We will dive into Best Practices of Job hunting, Resume Building and Interview Prep for Behavioral Interviewing.
