Episode Description

If you are looking for the perfect place to work, it is easy to get stuck in the rut of looking at companies winning awards in local or national magazines. What do Google, Bain & Company, and Eastman Chemical have in common (beyond being at the top of Glassdoor’s Employee’s Choice Award list)? They have thousands of applicants and human resource processes that can prevent networking in to a position. In this episode of The Career Confidante, host Marie Zimenoff will be sharing tools to help you discover hidden gem employers even though they may not be headlining your local papers. During the show, Marie will provide resources for uncovering these companies and building a proactive plan toward employment with them. You’ll also get your weekly Get Career Smart™ tip and answers to your job search and company research questions.

The Career Confidante

In the past decade, theories about how we would all need to be “free agents,” in charge of our own career trajectory, have become reality. While there is a good deal of talk about this new reality, little tangible direction exists about how to thrive, not just survive, in this new workforce.

She will share the inside scoop on hiring trends, explain how to earn a promotion, and explore what hiring managers are saying across a variety of industries.

Mondays at 3 PM Pacific on VoiceAmerica Business, Marie will provide a featured topic, interview national leaders and review the latest career management tools. You will benefit from a weekly Get Career Smart(tm) tip and featured job of the week, in addition to practical strategies in branding, career transition, advancement, job search, resumes, interviewing, and social media.
