Description

Did you know — many jobs are never posted to job boards or advertised online?

 In fact, some studies suggest that over 70% of employers begin recruiting and looking for candidates long before they publicly post a position. They look for candidates through recruiters, networks, and employees.

 This “hidden job market” has a much higher rate of success for job seekers than applying to online job boards. Knowing about jobs prior to a public search, having an employee referral, or knowing someone on the team means the chances of a hiring manager seeing your resume is much, much higher.

As a master’s student, you NEED to tap into this hidden network. But how do you do that?

 Join us for this virtual workshop designed for master’s students from all disciplines who are wondering:

 What is the hidden job market?

  • Why do I have a better chance of landing a job through it? Can’t I just apply to online postings?
  • How do I access the hidden job market?
  • How do I build a network if I don’t have a network?
