10 LITTLE THINGS THAT MAKE A BIG DIFFERENCE TO HIRING MANAGERS

Did you ever wonder about the impression you make on potential employers? Seemingly small things, like how you look when you walk in the door, to your social media footprint, can give a hiring manager a reason to pause…and perhaps not want to go much further. The good news is that these little things are easily corrected, and can make the difference in someone making a job offer versus taking a pass.
Facilitated by Robyn Winters, Career Strategist

WHAT IS LINKS:  LINKS is an acronym for Leads, Information, Networking, Know-how, and Strategies. It is an educational and motivational program designed to help candidates prepare for the week ahead and to share conversation, contacts, and job-search information in a relaxed, friendly environment. For the unemployed professional, LINKS is a “place to go” to focus on the job search when others go to work on Monday Mornings. LINKS sessions are free and open to the public. Reservations are required.
