The past three years have created stress and anxiety on the job front, causing us to question and shift our priorities as it relates to our careers.  It has also taught us lessons about what is important as a leader – and as a team member.  It may feel overwhelming, demotivating and frustrating to look for work.  If you are a leader, you may feel uncomfortable with the new and shifting expectations in these times.  I can help.

Are you looking for work:

  • anxiously looking to transition out of an industry hard hit by the pandemic, applying your transferrable skills in a new career?
  • needing to re-enter the job market quickly, stressed after a recent job loss and not knowing where to start?
  • feeling stuck in your career, and longing for more purpose and passion in your work, with an organization that believes what you believe?
  • needing expert assistance with creating a job search strategy and marketing yourself, including resume development, interview practice and networking strategies?
