Getting back to work in these difficult times is on many unemployed people's minds. Regardless of your present employment situation, the looming global recession means that nobody's job is secure anymore.
Job-hunting is never easy and being unemployed often leaves one stressed and depressed.
'Getting Back to Work', a seminar organised by the Getting Back to Work Foundation, will bring together head-hunters, outplacement specialists, and human resource professionals, who will share their views on:
Remaining upbeat and positive: tips and exercises for accepting the reality of the situation; realising you are not alone, focusing on the opportunity, and raising your self-esteem.
Getting focused and undertaking an effective job-search strategy: personal assessment and opportunity assessment; identifying what you are best at, where you want to go and how to get there, and using the Internet for research.
Effective networking.
Preparing a sellable CV: tailoring your approach.
