Career Corner
We know League members are on the move and upwardly mobile, but sometimes need some support getting there. So, we’ve asked practitioners and experts in the field of executive recruiting to share their knowledge and expertise on everything from the perfect resume to the questions you should always expect at every interview. And from what to wear on a second interview to typical errors recruiters see over and over during the recruitment process.
New posts will be added to help put YOU on the right track to the next big step in YOUR career!
If there is a particular topic or question that you have for our panel of experts, email the League at INFO@LeagueOfWomenInGovernment.org. We are happy to help!
