It used to be easy to get a job...

1.  Fix resume.

2. Submit to job postings.

3. Get job.

The changing economy and the social media scene have complicated things.  If you're only utilizing the old techniques, chances are you will be left behind.  Sue Danbom of Volt Worksource Solutions will discuss creating a new career strategy that will make you look good and appeal to employers whether you are entering the workforce for the first time or continuing to build your career.

Sue Danbom is the Director of Training of Professional Search for Volt Workforce Solutions.  She trains executive recruiters (headhunters).  Her career in talent acquistion spans 17 years and she has seen vast changes in ways that companies and employees find each other.  sharing that information is a passion.

Sue writes and administers an internal website at Volt, she writes a blog for the Electronic Recruiting Exchange and will be speaking at the national convention of the Institute of Management Accountants this June.

Program qualifies for one non technical CPE credit.
