Spark webinar: Make a convincing case as a career changer, generalist or seasoned professional

Topics

• Job seeking

Our highly appreciated job-search webinars continue with topics requested by our members! This autumn, you can look forward to an intensive LinkedIn package and tips on using AI in your job search. In the first webinar, you will learn how to describe your skills in a way that helps you stand out from other applicants. The webinar is held in Finnish. Registration is now open – read more and reserve your place!

When applying for a job, we all need to be able to explain why we are the right person for a particular role. It all starts with identifying what makes you distinctive.

In this webinar, you will learn how to present your experience, skills and motivation convincingly in a way that responds to the employer’s needs. Instead of blending into the crowd of applicants, you will stand out. You will learn to recognise the strengths of your background and gain tools for building your professional visibility and making a lasting impression. The webinar is held in Finnish.
