If you’re living in the Austin area and are in need of some job search advice, you might want to consider attending this job search boot camp.
On February 28, 2009 from 8:30 a.m.-12:30 p.m., at the Job Search Boot Camp seminar at the Wingate Conference Center in Round Rock , Angela Loeb, author of What You Need To Know To Get A Job Now!, Michael Kranes, award-winning resume writer, and Jay Markunas, career coach and HR specialist, will help job seekers with tools and training to jump start their 2009 job search.
“This is an idea born out of my desire to get people moving forward as they seek new employment,” says Jay Markunas, who also volunteers as facilitator of the Compass Career Networking Group at Unity of the Hills Church. Markunas has noticed a significant increase in the number of out-of-work professionals showing up at the group’s monthly meetings. “Too many bright, intelligent people are walking around wondering, ‘What do I do next? What is the most effective way to find that new job?’ There’s a definite need for this seminar in our community.”
At the Job Search Boot Camp, Markunas, Loëb and Kranes will provide training and share their expertise in resume writing, interview techniques and job search strategies. “We will provide focus and training in the technical aspects of the job search, as well as the emotional aspects of looking for a job,” says Loëb. One of Loëb’s clients, a senior project manager, related her experience after going through this two-pronged approach. “After a disappointing interview, I was feeling pretty depressed. With this training I now go back to my job hunt a stronger, more confident person.”
