DOWN BUT NOT OUT: Job-Hunting in a Recession
Times are tough for folks everywhere, including communication professionals in the Capital Region. But while signs of a recovery are increasingly more visible, finding that new job isn’t easy. So what’s next? How can we find a job in this new economic environment? What can we do to look better in the eyes of potential employers?
Join IABC/DC Metro for a discussion on HR, hiring practices in the communication profession and how job seekers can put their best foot forward.
This month, we present Ned Lundquist, ABC, chair of the IABC Accreditation Council and creator of Ned’s Job of the Week, a weekly portal featuring a listing of various communication positions from around the country; Heather R. Huhman, founder and president of Come Recommended;, and Kate Perrin, president of PRofessional Solutions, LLC and a longtime member of IABC/DC Metro.
Our panelists will discuss the current communication environment, the impact of the generational divide on our organizations, tips on using social media for a job search, and how senior professionals can remain competitive in the job market. Jakub M. Konysz, PR manger at ASAE & The Center for Association Leadership and co-VP of professional development for IABC/DC Metro, will moderate the discussion.
