Calling all women job seekers! Get the positive inspiration, tools and focus you need to make 2012 the year of Your NEW Job!

LYJ (Love Your Job) Search provides you with 5 weeks of group coaching and 1 one-to-one coaching session so that you can be well on your way toward achieving fantastic, lucrative job opportunities that are right for YOU while enjoying the process along the way.

In this coaching group, you will:

  • Do thoughtful exercises to gain clarity on your goals, allowing you to move effectively in the right direction and secure a job in a more timely manner.
  • Receive one-to-one “career-matchmaking” including job leads, introductions made on your behalf for informational interviews, and access to an extensive network of contacts in a wide range of fields.
  • Understand the power of networking to get a foot in the door and learn to make better use of your own network.
  • Develop weekly job search goals and have a forum for overcoming setbacks and celebrating achievements.
  • Learn to write a winning resume and customized cover letters, and receive honest feedback.
  • Employ strategies to interview as your best self, as well as negotiate your highest possible salary.
  • Set yourself up to “attract and allow” success rather than struggle for it.

  • In-depth writing of your resume to highlight the many transferable skills and accomplishments you bring to the job.
  • Creating a networking action plan and employing strategies to get the most out of your informational interviews.
  • Mock job interviewing and negotiation conversations.
  • Continued clarity on your career path, such as aligning short-term and long-term career goals.

Graduates of the class receive access to a private LinkedIn Group with exclusive job postings and career networking opportunities.
