DFW Happy Hour: A Discussion Event - Recession Proofing Our Careers
1 hour & 30 minutes
Connect with other professionals in the DFW area! Our network is a coalition of ambitious, supportive women and allies who show up for each other and mobilize to change the culture of business and work.
These Happy Hour Events are for both networking with others and experiencing what the Ellevate Network in DFW has to offer. Both current members and their guests are WELCOME!
At each monthly gathering, we will discuss top of mind topics relevant to women. Bring your tips and challenges for discussion or to get support.
In addition to great conversation, appetizers and one drink per person will be provided.
The topic we are offering for this month's discussion is …
Recession Proofing Our Careers
For example - We can't control things like getting laid off from a job, but we can control how we position ourselves as a professional to take the next step.
Some questions we could consider and discuss include:
- Hiring trends. What are you noticing about the types of jobs that are getting filled?
- Layoff trends. What types of layoffs are happening?
- Hiring managers: Who are they? What are they looking for?
- HR managers: How can you successfully navigate to get to the hiring manager?
- Networking: what works, what doesn’t work in networking
Join us to share your thoughts and experiences for navigating challenging economic times like we are in today.
And of course, we’ll be sharing what we're working on (wins and challenges) and getting to know each other.
Some materials from the Ellevate library to explore and get you inspired for the discussion:
