Could your resume, cover letter, or LinkedIn profile be ruining your chances of getting job interviews? The answer is likely yes, but there’s no need to panic. Job searching is both an art and a science that often leaves many people frustrated as they look to start or continue their careers. The most effective job search strategies involve getting organized for the process and identifying job opportunities that match your interests and qualifications. But where does the job search process begin and where does it end? 

In this episode of the Public Health Insight Podcast, we’ve invited Kamara Toffolo, Resume Writer, LinkedIn Consultant, and Job Search Strategist, to talk about:

• The differences between job searching before and during the pandemic;
• Developing a strategy before applying for job openings;
• Identifying a target role or job that best suits your strengths and interests; and
• Misconceptions of the Applicant Tracking System (ATS)
