Hello everyone! This episode is a recording of a webinar I delivered last week on how to find a job during turbulent times. What we are going through now with the COVID pandemic, the economic downturn and loss of jobs differ from job hunting done at any other time.
We have addressed this over the past few podcast episodes: if you go to my podcast website you can search for topics, and I recommend that if you are new to this Podcast, you search for the "COVID Series" of podcasts. This way you will get access to a great selection of expert interviews we’ve been able to compile for you to support your job hunting in these difficult times.
In this episode I address it more strategically, basically giving job hunters a recipe they can follow on how to position themselves in the job market. Note that in addition to the experts I interviewed for this podcast, I am constantly seeking confirmation from my contacts in recruitment and with employers to ensure I’m providing you, listeners of this podcast, my clients and students of The Job Hunting Made Simple online course with the best possible advice to get you the competitive advantage and confidence you need to navigate the new normal when it comes to job hunting.
This episode, Job Hunting in Turbulent times, has a downloadable workbook that will help you put into action the ideas and strategies I’m suggesting for you. 
Then on Thursday 4 June 2020, when I do the Live Career Coaching on Facebook and Instagram, we will be workshopping the strategies live, with a made-up example of a fictitious job hunter. If you missed the live coaching session or want to watch it again, I will include a direct link to it here: 
I hope you enjoy this episode on how to job hunt in turbulent times, it was a pleasure to record it, I really enjoyed putting these ideas together for you, especially the analogy of the river crossing. I look forward to hearing your feedback on this episode.
Don’t forget to follow this podcast and leave a 5-star rating and ranking on iTunes. As I said in prior episodes, leaving a rating on iTunes makes an incredible difference for the podcast’s success and is a great way for me to know you are enjoying the content.
