31. 4 Steps to Restart Your Career, Including Tips & Stories

Her Next Chapters

This week's episode is a recording from a live event I hosted on LinkedIn earlier this month when I reviewed 4 action steps to help you restart your career. We discuss the importance of getting clear on your career goals, along with exercises to help gain that clarity. There are multiple tips for both activating and expanding your network, practical considerations you'll want to consider, along with a multitude of resources to tap into, which are listed below. I've been on both sides of the interview table as a successful returner (Hi! 👋 former stay-at-home mom here) AND as an HR/Recruiter and hiring manager and I'm excited to share what I've learned to help you on your career journey.
