Wednesday webinar at one: The art of successful job search

Wednesday 11 August 2021 | 13:00 - 13:40 | Webinar

Ever heard the phrase “looking for a new role is like a full-time job in itself”? The modern financial services job market is more complex and competitive than ever, with supposedly more choice and transparency than ever before being offset by a generally poorer candidate experience and an increase in competition. This webinar will walk you through the strategies you need to adopt (and avoid) to execute a successful job search in the year 2021.

Learning outcomes include:

• An appreciation of the things you need to be doing on an ongoing basis to stay job market ready
• An understanding of the different channels and ‘go to market’ strategies and why it’s important you don’t rely too heavily on any single one of them
• Understand the benefit of targeting companies rather than jobs
• An exploration of the concept of the ‘hidden job market’
• How to manage your job search like a project

Where recordings are made, these are a member benefit that are accessed through the member-only platform, CFA UK Discover.
