Brenda here. If your #jobsearch feels extra hard right now, it's because it is. See insights from Kourtlynn, a recruiter, & her recommendations. Hint: the answer is not applying for all the jobs; it's being strategic & deliberate: buff.ly/4afZyps #thelayofflady
Brenda here. When you work in L&D, you always help others. Now it's time to focus on you! On 5/15 from 11:30 am-1:00 pm, I'm leading Shift Happens: Designing Your L&D Career. Invest in yourself & create your #opportunityreadiness plan! buff.ly/3vHgpC7 #careerresilience
Brenda here. The value of having a strong professional network is the ability to tap into their expertise. During a job search, you may want to ask your connections for their help. Here are a few pointers to help them say yes: buff.ly/3ZYT4Fd #LinkedIn #helppeoplehelpyou
Brenda here. Layoffs happen all of the time. When your job unexpectedly ends, it's hard to know what to do first. Check out this blog article, “I Just Got Laid Off--Now What?" for where to start: buff.ly/3CZLD89 #layoff #thelayofflady #RIF #unemployed #careertransition

Brenda here. Non-compete agreements have taken a legal blow. I had a #non-compete for an early-career entry-level, life-dominating, low-paying role. While I heard it was not enforceable, it still kept me stuck for way too long. Learn more here: buff.ly/3xQVaPe

Brenda here. Recently, I've had a few people ask me the same question. "How do you know when it's time to leave your job?" There is no one-size-fits-all answer. Key factors include your finances, goals, & what prompted you to ask. Learn more here: buff.ly/46IS24F
Brenda here. Layoffs happen all the time--and some areas get hit harder and more frequently than others. In fact, layoffs are more likely for people in training and marketing roles. buff.ly/3xmDNWt #layoffs #RIF #careerresilience
