Job Hunting in the Post Pandemic World

The Covid Crisis was a catalyst for profound introspection as well as economic and political change. It’s no secret that companies everywhere were impacted by the need to pivot to remote work, while reducing staffing and then fighting to retain staff as the great resignation commenced. 

For those who find themselves in the job hunt at this time there are new realities and new dynamics that have taken hold. Companies are seeking workers who can pivot quickly. People who can multitask. People who can work hybrid and people who can commit to working in the office as well. 

A recent study indicated that 26% of all Americans will be searching for a new job this year. If you’re one of them, now is the time to determine who you are in this post-pandemic world, what you really want moving forward, and how to get it.

In this inter-active hour Lew Bader, Chairman of the Long Island Chapter and the Peer Resume Review Committee of The FENG will lead a discussion regarding:

What has changed in the marketplace

How to network in a post pandemic world (virtual and in person)

Skills to develop and enhance

Your marketing material (aka your resume and LinkedIn profile)

Modifying your approach to interviews

The summer is over. It’s time to load up your toolbelt and get to work. Join us on August 31st to jumpstart your Fall job search.
