North Central College’s Office of Career Development encourages graduating seniors to participate in a free webinar April 22 that will offer tips on securing employment.

Alumni seeking job search advice also are invited to participate in the online presentation at 1:30 p.m. Wednesday, April 22. Participates may participate from any desktop computer, tablet or mobile device by visiting gradstaff.com/Job-Search-Strategies.html.

The webinar is intended for college seniors who have delayed their searches for post-graduation employment, those who have been unsuccessful to date in on-campus interviewing and those undecided about pursuing graduate school.

GradStaff CEO Bob LaBombard will offer advice about what industries to look at and how to tailor previous experience to a variety of positions. He will be joined by Melissa Gurewitz, a GradStaff account manager, who will talk about her own job search and offer tips on identifying transferrable skills and career interests, demographic trends, comparing large and smaller-sized employers, target industries and more. The webinar will conclude with an opportunity for participants to ask questions of the presenters.
