Recession-Proofing Your Career
This program is for those with seven or less years of experience to hear three top individuals discuss openly and candidly career choices made early in one's career, and how they themselves survived the ups and downs of the job market. The panelists will discuss the pro's and con's of one or two core job strengths vs. multiple skills; working for "known" companies vs. smaller firms; agency vs. corporate; and making oneself more viable in a downturn.
Join us for what will be a candid and interactive discussion with these panelists.
