[KIT-list] Free Webinar “Recession-Proof Your 2023 Job Search” on 2/6 from Albert’s List

Hi Everyone,

If you didn't catch my email last week, I'm suggesting KIT List community members join Albert's List since I'm closing the KIT List in early February.

Albert is also hosting a free webinar you can attend that is just one of the many things Albert Qian provides for job seekers.

I'm recommending Albert's List since I know Albert and trust him because he has been dedicating his time for over nine years to help job seekers (now with the help of moderators). Albert's List (also called the A-List) began when he was job hunting himself, and it's a supportive community of 47,000 that shares job leads and job search advice and encouragement — and events!

Here's the link to the Albert's Job Listings and Referrals Facebook page. Albert wrote a wonderful welcome message to our KIT List members:

Here's the information on the free webinar next Monday from Albert's List:

*How to Recession-Proof Your Job Search in 2023*

Monday, February 6
6:00PM PST

As the job search becomes increasingly competitive due to layoffs, finding ways to stand out in the interview, through your personal brand, or in your networking.

At Albert's List, we've spent the past 10 years paying attention to how the modern job search has evolved while building a community of 47K+ professionals in all career stages. We've collected our findings and have created a proven model that results in attention, interviews, and offers.

You'll hear about it in this webinar, including:

* How you can apply this model to your own search — interviewing, positioning your resume/materials, networking, building your personal brand, and more.
* What's changed for job seekers in the current economy, and what's stayed the same.
* Why having a support system during your search is essential.
* And more!

[KIT-list] FROM SUE: Thank you so much for the wonderful and uplifting messages — and a new resource for you!

Hello Everyone,

First of all, I'm sorry the formatting and word spacing in my email announcing the closing of the KIT List. I'd proofed it so many times, but the formatting was lost between email platforms. Argh!


Thank You So Much:

I will be getting get back to every one of you who took the time to send me an email. I can't express how MUCH your encouraging and kind messages mean to us (Kelly is seeing them, too!), since this was a very difficult decision that I'd been contemplating for many years.

Your emails are such a beautiful reflection of the heart and caliber of the truly special people in our KIT List community. Thank you!


An Excellent Job Resource for You:

I wanted to let you know about a great place for people from the KIT List to go, which was started out of the same spirit of helping others by a terrific person, Albert Qian.

Albert created his Facebook group nine years ago during his own job search — and he does this in his spare time, too! It has grown to not only a large community, but he also offers networking events and information-packed webinars to help job seekers.

You can sign up for Albert's List here:
https://m.facebook.com/albertslist/

Since it's on Facebook, it's a robust place where people can share tip and ideas, or ask questions about their job search and get answers from the community. Albert has volunteer moderators to help keep the quality and preserve the code of conduct (which I know so well how vital it is to protect members in an online community!).


KIT List Resources that Will Remain Up:

As I mentioned in my announcement email a few days ago, I will continue to keep these resources online so you can still get the "insider tips" from the hiring experts so you can ace your interviews — and land the job you'll love!

KIT List Blog:
Ideas, job tips, events, and life lessons (sharing what I've learned during life's challenges and unexpected adventures!).
https://kitlist.wordpress.com/

KIT List "Get That Job!" TV Shows:
I interview two experts in each show who share job search and interviewing tips, plus smart career strategies.
https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL47LpytMIxu4a8n48lQpd-Wkfh5tC7ns1

KIT List "Corona" Videos:
Kelly and I interview our trusted friends who are recruiters and career experts on how to get a job during a worldwide pandemic. These tips are timely for any difficult economic turn!
https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCeDHQ5iifVPYdWj7uyB7J7Q


Again, I am profoundly touched by your wonderful messages, which I'm sharing with my sister Kelly who has been my amazing co-moderator (since 2009!). I have deep gratitude to our earlier moderators, Val Cienega and Amy Sloniker Plunkett, who pitched back in 2003 with their precious time to help with the workload to keep the KIT List going!

Warmly,

Sue
