Would you believe that to succeed in the job search takes some hard work that can't be quantified by numbers, dollars, or percentages? For example, you can't put a finger on the number of hours of sleepless nights you endure. Or the percentage of job applications that end up in the application black hole. The job search isn't sexy and it isn't always pleasant. Join our guest speaker, Maureen McCann, as she talks about the nitty-gritty of the job search and how to get past the barriers that present themselves.

The interview is tough enough having to make sure you make a great first impression when you walk in the door. Is my eye contact good? Is my handshake firm yet gentle? Am I smiling? These are all very important to accomplish in the interview, but what’s more important is that you can answer the tough interview questions. In this webinar, you will learn about the three types of questions—traditional, situational, and behavioral—and why interviewers ask them.
