Topic:  "How to Organize your Job Search and Track your way to success"

During these challenging times, a job search involves a lot of details. Sometimes, it seems as if you have so many balls in the air that you do not have enough arms to prevent things from falling down. Once you start your search, how do you organize your week, your month and your quarter? How do you keep track of all of the places you have sent or posted your resume? What are you doing to keep on top of your networking activities? Please join Linda Van Valkenburgh as she discusses “How To Organize Your Job Search And Track Your Way To Success!”
