Hi Everyone,

We've created a YouTube channel to make it easy to view the five KIT List Corona Video interviews with job experts:

https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCeDHQ5iifVPYdWj7uyB7J7Q

My sister, Kelly, and I only produced these five videos since they were taking more time than we expected. Even though they are home productions!

Our purpose for creating them is to encourage you during this unique time — and hear from hiring and career experts on how to turn this pandemic into an opportunity.

Kelly and I are grateful to that experts who weighed in on the job market and shared excellent ideas on how to redirect the challenges of COVID-19 into new ways of working and creating a stronger future.

Important:
Please be sure to take advantage of the free 1:1 calls each expert has offered (see the end of each video).

These are top experts who are willing to talk about your specific situation to help find new work, create a strong solutions-based 30-second elevator pitch, get ideas on how to "pivot" to use your talents in new ways, how to optimize your LinkedIn profile and network, and more.

The most important thing is that you take action now.

The world is opening up again, and you want to be at the forefront of the recovery.

Here's to your bright future and a healthier world!
