Job searching can be quite daunting. You have to research, write, train, excercise, check, monitor, communicate, adjust, act, mingle, network... It's a lot and it's often confusing, overwhelming and after a while it can get disheartening. A lot of people feel like they are undergoing the process instead of being in charge of their own path.

Does this feel relatable to you?

Then it's high time for you to bring some structure in your job searching activities and take control over the entire process. In this workshop you will learn how to manage your job search like a project. You will learn how to plan all the important steps and incorporate all the relevant elements of a job search process. And you will do this in a way that fits within your personal situation.

What to bring to the workshop:

- Writing material (laptop is not required)
- An open mind willing to try new things :)

What you can do to prepare (optional):

Examine how you go about your job searching activities now. Don't try to change it yet, just take a look at it. Note what you like about what you're doing and what feels quite demanding or challenging.

We look forward meeting you!

We will provide the coffee, tea and cookies :-)
