Are you the parent of a college student?
Many parents get a jump start on their child's job search by hiring SamNova while their child is still in college! Although a college's Career Services can be very helpful; the sheer volume of students and lack of time does not allow for extensive 1-on-1 coaching.
Hiring a SamNova Career Coach for your college student is inexpensive compared to the overall money invested in your child's college education.
The SamNova bucket list for junior and senior college students is an absolute MUSTS for success. A student who excels in these areas will significantly increase their ability to land not just a job in their field but a job of their choosing and at the highest compensation.
I will be speaking at a local college this week to both students and faculty members about why Networking and LinkedIn are paramount to a student's career success.

Many of our clients have had success and landed jobs over the lastย 90 days. Some started with us awhile ago and others only within the last 30 days.
One principal we live by is to ensure our client's are not putting all their efforts into only 1-2 job search strategies. A balanced approach has always proven far more successful than applying forย posted openings on the job boards.
For us, it always begins with the foundational elements or even basic networking can fall flat.
The MUSTS before you start:
1. Knowing what you are aiming for
2. A "value driven" Resume (that's better than most)
3. An amazing LinkedIn profile (that confirms and attracts)
4. Steller Interview preparation (and NOT being just another bushy tailed candidate)
There is much more that we do including being "AI" literate as an emerging and career must.
To learn more about how we empower clients to optimize their careers, visit our website at https://t.co/hhfpp5zhXS or call our main #: 610-274-8214 and a member of our team will get back to you.
