Hey, fam! In this video, I cover 5 legit and practical ways to get you back at work after a career break.
1. Reenter the workforce through boot camps, returnships, or early career programs.
2. Create and package contents under a portfolio or an LLC for an added professional fair.
3. Write a killer resume that markets you as the most valuable player for the position you desire. Don't just list your jobs on your resume.
4. Network through volunteering, asking friends and family for employee referrals, attending conferences, and participating.
5. Be open to different opportunities and the possibility of taking a pay cut for a short time.
