Hi everyone,
The September jobs report is out, and guess what, it was better than expected. Yes, hiring is happening! And if the Fed cuts rates again in November, hiring should continue to pick up next year.
Let’s prepare and build on this momentum!
First, take stock of those high-in-demand transferable skills of yours that often are honed while leaning out — good communication, empathy, problem solving, customer service chops. Show some love for those transferable skills because the industries hiring most are seeking them, as you can see in this chart below.
Second, shelve those negative thoughts. “What I like to do doesn’t fit into the current job market.” Challenge yourself to look at how what you like to do does fit into the current job market. What new things have you discovered about yourself? Check these negative thoughts at the curb.
Third, let go of any worries about a resume gap. As one CEO told us when writing our book, “Employers want to know what you can do for them right now. They don’t care about what you were doing a year ago.”
Of course, if you’re in the position of returning to work, all of this sounds so easy but in practice can feel overwhelming. This is why we developed our Return to Work Kit, which includes three sessions of 1x1 coaching with specific to-do’s in between each. It’s our proprietary method that will bring you clarity, confidence and a course of action.
Our Return to Work Kit is $699 and includes:
3 hours and 15 minutes of 1x1 coaching where we will identify your skill set, how and where it fits into todays job market, and assist with alignment of your resume and LinkedIn profile to pursue jobs.
A copy of Your Turn: Careers, Kids and Comebacks—A Working Mother’s Guide
Complimentary access to our Monthly Meetups for one year (our next one is next week — Oct. 17)
We know for some job seekers, this price point might feel high. But if your confidence is low, you feel like you’re swimming in inaction or indecision, we know this is exactly what you need.
How do we know? We’ll let the women we’ve worked with tell you!
"Après has reminded me that I am not alone and that it is perfectly OK to have children and still find success and happiness in my career!" - Nicole
“I've been able to make connections and conduct informational interviews, and found that many people see a connection with one of my many previous employers, and are willing to talk to me. Thank you.” - Ann
"I was reluctant to reach out to prospective employers, as my resume was dated and dull. I felt overwhelmed by the process and needed some guidance. During the hour-long session with Après, we took my lengthy resume and transformed it into a succinct summary of my professional strengths and career highlights. I left the call feeling motivated, supported, and ready to connect with my dream companies." - Jen
