Content and Overview

In more than 65 lectures and nearly 5 hours of video, this course takes you through an entire process that is designed to get the attention of hiring managers (and the people who know them) in a positive way.

As a business coach, consultant, author, and speaker, I've spent many years in the corporate world as either an employee or consultant. I've been a leader of a career transition group (alongside other leaders who were recruiters, HR leaders, and corporate leaders) where we helped hundreds of people find and land great jobs.

I was especially drawn to the difficulties that people in their 20s experienced while trying to land a great job in their career field.

I spoke to many hiring managers to find out what irked them about people in their 20s as employees and as job candidates. I also asked them what they wanted in their younger employees.

They had a lot to say!

I developed this course with you - and your future hiring managers - in mind.

With this course you'll get information that comes from hiring managers and others I've interviewed about career development. You'll learn what to do with this information and how to use it to your best advantage to get a great job in your field!

To your success!
