November 20th - How to unlock the hidden job market (and why you need to stop looking at job boards (2 - 2:30pm ET) 

Did you know — many jobs are never posted to job boards or advertised online? 

In fact, some studies suggest that over 70% of employers begin recruiting and looking for candidates long before they publicly post a position. They look for candidates through recruiters, networks, and employees. 

This “hidden job market” has a much higher rate of success for job seekers than applying to online job boards. Knowing about jobs prior to a public search, having an employee referral, or knowing someone on the team means the chances of a hiring manager seeing your resume is much, much higher. 

As a master’s student, you NEED to tap into this hidden network. But how do you do that? 

Join us for this virtual workshop designed for master’s students from all disciplines who are wondering: 

  • What is the hidden job market? 
  • Why do I have a better chance of landing a job through it? Can’t I just apply to online postings? 
  • How do I access the hidden job market? 
  • How do I build a network if I don’t have a network?
