Search Strategy
Networking
Networking has become the primary vehicle for career search because of the constant flux of the American workplace. Major shifts in the economy are causing companies to move to a more flexible workforce model. The impact is that while changing jobs is not a new phenomenon, the frequency with which people change jobs has increased significantly and the changes people are making in their work are more radical than ever before.
"It is not the strongest of the species that survive, or the most intelligent, but the one most responsive to change." Charles Darwin
In the past it was not uncommon to have the same job for an entire career. Today…
- Nearly 1 out of 3 American workers has been with his or her employer for less than a year, and 2 out of 3 for less than 5 years, according to the Bureau of Labor.
- Of the 96 million people between the ages of 30 and 59, 1 in 10 will change jobs this year alone.
- Today’s college graduate will have 5 different careers and 12 to 15 different jobs within those careers.
The good news is that with this much change, opportunities are occurring all the time. Since people change jobs every two to three years, companies are constantly hiring and rehiring for positions. This seminar offers a new model for capitalizing on this new workplace.

Search Strategy will reap great results but it does require research, strategy and persistence.
