Supporting Our Seniors: Crafting a Job Search Plan

McShane Campus Center Room 221 441 East Fordham Road, Bronx, NY, United States

Without a strategic job search plan, job searching is like throwing a dart at a board without aiming for a target. There’s a chance you’ll hit the bullseye, but there are no guarantees.

In this session, we'll help you develop a comprehensive job search plan tailored to your career goals. From determining your target job titles to researching potential employers, we'll walk you through the steps to create a strategic roadmap for your job search.

This will be an interactive, hands-on session. It is recommended that you bring a device or pen and paper to maximize your participation and results. We'll have snacks to munch on during our time together, so come hungry!
