Package a You They Can't Refuse

Self Presentation and Job Search Skills Workshops

Class Length: Full Day

Overview/Description:
Changing jobs due to RIF, promotion or personal choice? Candidates that present themselves in a unique way distinguish themselves from the competition and increase their probability of getting the job. Creating and presenting a compelling "Package" of unique traits and experience requires sincere self-examination and presentation technique. In this session, participants define their professional style, personal characteristics and internal roadblocks that limit their ability to showcase their talents. Then they are taught fun and effective techniques to present themselves in a memorable way. Participants walk away with a practical plan and strategy to get the job they really want.
