Job Search Help from HR Execs

As a job seeker how would you like to see inside the hiring process from the other side? Join us Monday, April 17, 2023 at this online Hudson Job Search meeting to get the point of view from the human resources executive. We’ll ask the panel several questions to understand the current landscapes at a variety of industries.  How much of the application process is automated and how can your resume, cover letter and online application get the extra attention to be considered for an interview? When you get an interview, what can an applicant do to make an impactful first impression? How much are these HR leaders using social media to vet candidates?  When is it appropriate to bring up salary expectations and how do HR leaders view the salary negotiation process?  Is it appropriate to ask for a detailed offer in writing before making a decision?

Our speakers will not only answer your questions but share insight into their company’s hiring culture, talent acquisition strategies, HR and hiring manager roles in finding the right person(s) for the job and much more.
