SUMMARY:JobSeekers: How to Handle Ghosting During Your Job Search
DESCRIPTION:PLEASE NOTE: This event is virtual and advance registration is required.\nThe job search can be a very frustrating experience\, especially when you believe you’re making progress with a terrific prospect\, but then\, suddenly\, things go silent. No phone call\, no email\, nothing. You have been ghosted. \nWhat should you do? Are you still in the running? Did you do something wrong? Did they lose interest in you? Are they negotiating with another candidate? \nHerein lies the issue of being “ghosted” by a potential employer. Statistics indicate that 75% of job applicants say they were ghosted after a positive interview. \nIt is insensitive. It is unprofessional. It is disappointing. Many job searchers\, including those who have completed multiple rounds of interviews\, are experiencing this issue. \nDuring this webinar\, NSENG Founder/CEO Marty Gilbert will provide you with some insight into specific actions you can take to combat ghosting. Here are some of the subjects he will discuss. \n\nWhy ghosting happens\nHow to reduce your chance of being ghosted\nWhat to do if you suspect you’ve been ghosted\n\n There will be 20 minutes of open networking \nwith fellow job seekers after the presentation. \n\nGuest Speaker\nMarty Gilbert \nMarty Gilbert is the Founder and CEO of the NorthShore Executive Networking Group (NSENG at www.nsenginc.com)\, the largest job search organization in the US. The group is comprised of over 11\,000 members\, with more than 1 member landing a new job each day. Over the past 14 years Marty’s job search coaching\, networking meetings\, webinars and workshops have helped over 3\,000 professionals to land new career opportunities. Additionally\, his trademarked “What the Hell Approach to Job Search”® has gained significant notoriety as a unique methodology that enables individuals to accelerate their engagement with target companies and key influencers. Marty also is a frequent job search speaker at large university alumni groups including Harvard\, Yale\, Cornell\, Howard\, NYU\, Chicago\, Michigan and several others. \nMarty also spent 18 years with Motorola\, where he held several marketing\, sales and general management roles. He served as Chief Operating Officer for STATS Inc\, the nation’s leading sports data company that was also the driving force behind the book and movie\, Moneyball\, starring Brad Pitt.
