How to Get the Most from our Speaker Sessions

Job seekers who attend our motivational speaker sessions should aim to attend early in order to grab a good seat and network with others.

Attend Regularly
& Early

Each week, arrive early to grab a good seat, network with others, meet with our volunteers and staff, and to have time to prepare notes and questions.

Take Notes &
Ask Questions

Taking notes and asking questions helps you better absorb the insights provided by our speakers and helps you directly apply it to your unique job search.

We encourage attendees of Overcoming Job Transition's motivational speaker meetings to discuss what they've learned with others, as it helps solidify what was learned during the speaker session.

Through our LinkedIn group and workshops, discussion promotes deeper understanding of the lesson and how it applies to your job search.
