What do you need for a successful job search? No matter what stage you are in during this time of career transition, there are certain tools and resources – such as your résumé and reference list – that need to be ready and available at all times to help you successfully move forward. There are at least 10 items – find out what they are to keep your job-search toolbox stocked and ready to go!

WHAT IS LINKS:  LINKS is an acronym for Leads, Information, Networking, Know-how, and Strategies. It is an educational and motivational program designed to help candidates prepare for the week ahead and to share conversation, contacts, and job-search information in a relaxed, friendly environment. For the unemployed professional, LINKS is a “place to go” to focus on the job search when others go to work on Monday Mornings. LINKS sessions are free and open to the public. Reservations are required.
