What You’ll Learn from this Episode:

• The five reminders when applying to jobs:
  • Network. Start today. Having a community around you on this journey will be key.
  • Keep an eye on industry trends. Be informed on changes and developments in the public health field. 
  • Be flexible. Consider all types of experience (part-time and contract work), work on expanding your skillset, and think outside of the box when searching for jobs.
  • Don't be afraid to negotiate. When you do receive a job offer, have a conversation about a higher salary or other benefits. This is where your community can help you. 
  • Stay positive.  Reignite the passion and excitement that got you into public health. 
• Economic uncertainty, or not, job searching is tough. Use these reminders to keep you going.
