Job Search Roundtable

Job Search Roundtable (After Hours)

Have you recently experienced a job transition or are considering a career change within or outside the University?   Have you asked yourself any of the following questions:

  • What is the best way to prepare for organizational changes?
  • Does my resume highlight my skills and accomplishments?
  • How do I market myself in an interview?
  • What are the best strategies for 'networking' with others?

Human Resources has information that can help.

At 5:30 PM on the third Thursday of each month, HR Employee and Career Advising will hold a Job Search Roundtable. The discussion is open to UA employees and recent retirees. Pre-registration is required. We’ll have food!

We’ll begin each roundtable meeting with a presentation about current career change issues and news. This month's session is entitled, "The Art of the Interview" and will include suggestions on how to effectively present your skills and knowledge in various job interview settings.  After that, there is no set agenda other than that we’ll be discussing job search matters.

The meeting will last 1½ hours but if you need to leave earlier that’s ok. We want these sessions to be both useful and convenient.  A number of handouts concerning career change will be available.

Pre-registration is required (see below).  If you have any difficulty registering, contact Loretta Pedraza at 621-7183.
