Overview
Are human resources professionals
doing more than just examining your
resume before they invite you in for an

weed out people amidst the rising number
of resumes they're receiving. Elizabeth

employers are getting inside information
on you in her IEEE-USA webinar,
"Snooping Employers: How Employers Get
Background Information on You Prior to
the Interview."
Elizabeth will discuss:
-
How to control your market
perception through LinkedIn and
other social networks
-
How to set yourself apart from
the competitive job market
-
How continue the interview
process all the way to job offer
-
How to manage your references
