Monday, August 24 - Job Seekers Network Zoom Meeting
9:30 AM - Negotiating Compensation with Madelyn Butler
Job Search Work Team
Don't job search alone! This focused time goes one step deeper building relationships and allows participants to share a current struggle, goal, or roadblock related to purpose, faith, or work. Each person will take a brief turn in the “hot seat” to receive feedback, ideas, and encouragement from the group. It’s a powerful way to gain clarity, brainstorm solutions, and move forward with renewed confidence.
CONTINUE BUILDING YOUR JOB SEARCH
If you joined us recently, this session is designed to help you build on the progress you’ve already started, bringing more focus and structure so your efforts begin to produce results. If you’re new, you’ll gain practical tools and a supportive community to help you take your next step with clarity.
