• How to be an effective advocate for peers going through career changes
• Practical ways to help colleagues who are seeking new opportunities

Real Stories, Real Strategies

• Personal journeys from women who've successfully navigated career transitions
• Lessons learned and strategies that worked

Practical Job Search Tools

• Understanding hiring systems and ATS (Applicant Tracking System) best practices
• Follow-up strategies and timing
• Creating a business plan for your job search
• When and how to ask for help

Financial Considerations in Career Transition

• Understanding the financial impact of job changes
• Planning for gaps in employment or income changes
• Navigating benefits, severance packages, and salary negotiations
• Budgeting strategies during your search

The session will conclude with a collaborative debrief where we'll capture key takeaways and actionable insights.
