On Wednesday evening, eighteen job seekers benefited from
presenter Mick Verran's vast experience in planning, managing and executing job
searches. Mick introduced the concept of a "portfolio career," a
strategy particularly helpful to those who have many interests and a variety of
career experiences. A combination of projects, consulting, sub-contracting,
teaching, coaching and products can create a good mix of employment
opportunities. For those who are seeking full-time employment, Mick provided a
structured approach to targeting potential employers, planning a job search and
managing your time effectively. Key to both approaches is careful consideration
of financial implications and personal interests and motivation.
