ACSN (the world’s largest network of alumni career services leaders) invites you to join LinkedIn’s former head of Education Marketing, Jeremy Schifeling, to learn the insider secrets to navigate this challenging moment, including: how to shift your career to a new role or industry – even if you’re not sure how to make the leap; how to make sure your LinkedIn profile is ready – by focusing on the keywords that recruiters are searching for right now; how to increase your chances 10X even when opportunities are scarce – and even if you’ve been laid-off. While the session will be recorded, just be sure to join LIVE since only live participants will be eligible to win a free LinkedIn Profile Makeover from Jeremy himself! Indicate that you were invited by WFU on the registration form.
Trying to find or land a solid, professional part-time job role in your desired career industry can feel like trying to spot a unicorn (it’s difficult or maybe even impossible!). Perhaps you’re wanting to reduce your work hours or dip your toe back into the working world after a career break and a flexible, part-time role would be best for you. How do you go about finding these types of positions? Who in your network could help you? Let’s talk about it!
May Coffee Chat with Alumni | Register by Friday, May 2nd, 2025 to participate! | Virtual
Whether you’re hoping to build your network professionally or just take a few minutes to meet someone new, sign up for these 1:1 alumni conversations!
Here’s how it works: Register by the end of the day on Friday, May 2nd. Our team will match alumni for 1:1 conversations. On Tuesday, May 6th, we’ll connect each conversation pair with a short introductory email. Each conversation pair will work to find a time to meet that works for you both. It’s that easy. Plan to chat for 30-minutes, maybe over coffee or a quick bite to eat!
