Navigating Career Search with Marginalized Clients

We’re so excited to announce this new interactive webinar with Ari Shaffer on navigating the career search with marginalized clients.

Whether you’re a resume writer or career coach, you will likely work with clients facing challenging circumstances at one point or another.

Perhaps they have been home with children for an extended period of time, were laid off at 60, or their job is now obsolete.

Maybe they’re living with depression or caring for a parent or special needs child.

Having a few tricks up your sleeve gives you a competitive edge in winning these contracts/clients and working with your clients effectively and efficiently.

During this interactive 90-minute workshop, you’ll learn how to work with the mindset of clients in this category as well as navigating misconceptions of employers.

We’ll also explore how to shift the focus from what the client struggles with to their strongest abilities.

Finally, we’ll discuss where to conduct such a job search and how to help clients communicate with potential employers.

Date & Time: Thurs, 3/23/2023 at 12-1:30 PM Eastern
