Webinar: “So You Lost Your Job, Now What?”
August 29 @ 1:00 pm - 2:00 pm
Free
Whether you’ve been downsized, laid off, or simply can’t find the right fit, job loss is an uncomfortable struggle many experience but few truly discuss publicly. This interactive session will look at the timeline of job loss: from the first pangs of concern, to the dreaded call from HR, and the weeks (or months) of job searching afterwards. Regardless of where you are in your career, this session will set you up for success by preparing you for transitioning between roles smoothly.
Note: this webinar is part one of our three-part Annual Webinar Series; when you register, you’ll receive an invitation to all three (June, July, August) sessions.
A BIG thank you to Fuel + The Focus Room for supporting this series and making it free, year after year, for the WIRe community!
