Tell Your Career Story to Get the Job You Want

by Vivian Chow | at Minnebar 19

Thinking about switching jobs but not sure how to explain your experience in a way that makes sense? Whether you’re aiming for a promotion, changing functions or industries, or just ready for something new, how you tell your career story can make all the difference in getting a recruiter - or even your internal HR team - to consider you.

In this session, we’ll walk through how to talk about your background in a way that highlights your strengths and connects to the job you want — even if your path hasn’t been perfectly linear. (And mine definitely hasn’t been! I’ve gone from sales to logistics to marketing to strategy, and worked at Fortune 100 companies, small private businesses, and nonprofits.)

I’ll also share tips on how to update your resume and LinkedIn to fit job descriptions, plus ways to make connections that bring you closer to your next role.

Come learn how to rethink the way you talk about your career so people realize not just what you’ve done, but what you can do next!
