10 Challenges Senior Executives Face in the Job Search
By Ford R. Myers
President of Career Potential, LLC
Over the course of my consulting career, I have worked with thousands of key executives – CEOs, Partners, COOs, Presidents, Senior Vice Presidents, Directors and so on. Top business professionals like these present special challenges to the Career Coach, because these clients face unique challenges in their own career transitions! As someone who specializes in working with this clientele, I have identified 10 distinct issues that senior executives usually confront when conducting a job search – and I have developed some practical, effective suggestions to address each of those issues.
By gaining a better understanding of the special challenges they face, and implementing the solutions outlined above, my senior-level clients have dramatically improved their job search results – and significantly decreased their levels of anxiety and frustration. More importantly, they have consistently landed wonderful, new jobs!
How to Beat Age Discrimination During Your Job Search
Date: Tuesday, June 22, 2021
Time: 12:00pm to 1:30pm Eastern Time Speaker: Marty Gilbert Location: Virtual. Attend from anywhere on any connected device. Investment: Free for members. Guests are welcome.
For job seekers over the age of 45, there can be ageism challenges that may be presenting obstacles to getting the interviews or job offers you think you deserve. Some firms might refer to you as being “over qualified” and others think you won’t be challenged enough. But regardless of what it’s called, age discrimination does happen in the hiring process and it’s not unusual for you to be competing against individuals who may be 10 to 20 years younger than you.
There are, however, specific actions you can take to lessen your chances of being a victim of these harmful behaviors. During this webinar presentation, Marty Gilbert will share more than 15 recommendations that have worked for him and hundreds of job seekers who he has coached. And all of his suggestions can be implemented immediately so that you can reverse a trend that may be holding you back.
Do you have the occasional need for career guidance, but not enough to justify engaging in a complete career coaching program? Would you like quick access to a leading career expert, and only pay for as much coaching as you need?
