Even though LinkedIn, Facebook, and other online tools have offered employers a chance to learn more about you, your resume is still the fundamental job search tool.

Pat will share with you relevant and timely resume strategies that will not only get your resume notice on ATS systems but grab the attention of hiring managers who traditionally only spend 6 seconds scanning your resume.

Downsizing the Family Home: What to Save and What to Let Go

CareerEncores Series

Imagine having to move out of a home you've lived in for 20, 30, or 40 years. You will have undoubtably accumulated a huge amount of "stuff". Books, CD's records, photographs, nick nacks, junk in the basement, attic, and garage. It's bound to be a LOT of stuff.
Marni provides a humorous look at how you can approach this point in your life and offers suggestions that you start cutting into this collection immediately. Your goal should be to begin to thin down your "stuff" at least 3-5 years before you retire so you are not burdened with the emotional and physical responsibilities as you age.
