Maintaining a Healthy Balance in a Job Search. Organizing Yourself and Your Search for Success.

A job search is a journey. It is a journey with many bifurcated paths, false starts, highs and lows. Success on this journey depends on maintaining a healthy mental balance, staying organized and strong networking. This workshop will help you to organize yourself and your job search for success.

Dana Mayhew is a human resources professional with over 25 years of experience. Now that her son has graduated from college she is at a personal crossroads in her life. She is exploring the idea of moving from consulting to full time regular employment. Dana knows first hand that looking for employment is a full time job...often a frustrating and sometimes discouraging job. She describes this job as one of life's great journeys and strongly believes that the success of this journey depends on maintaining an organized approach to the job search and a good mental balance.

Having interviewed and hired hundreds of people in her various roles, she is an excellent candidate to share with us what recruiters are looking for and how to stay organized during a job search. She will discuss sourcing jobs, networking, tracking progress and maintaining an emotional and physical balance while on the job search journey.
