The NETWORK : The Art of Employability
Event Information
About this event
The Art of Employability
While COVID-19 made virtual interviewing a necessary practice, its popularity amongst employers is likely to stick post-pandemic. Virtual interviewing is convenient for employers as it allows for a more efficient interview process, eases scheduling conflicts, saves money, and broadens the candidate pool.
Perhaps you find the very concept of selling yourself during a job interview daunting.
Would you like to learn some tips and tricks on how to self-promote yourself in a convincing manner?
During The Art of Employability workshop, led by our lovely NETWORK member Cherry Kent, we will review the best ways to be successful during your next virtual interview and discuss, amongst others:
- Creating and updating your CV to a modern-day standard
- Optimising LinkedIn to assist your job search
- How to manage online interviews and appraisals
- Where to look for jobs in Luxembourg
The NETWORK has teamed up with our chosen charity: Dress for Success for this event and we warmly welcome the ladies being supported by them.
