AREAS OF FOCUS
LANDING A JOB
Accelerate your job search learning curve and avoid wheel-spinning by joining one of our programs that bring you up-to-date on effective job search methodology. Recruitment and hiring strategies have been transformed by technology, making job search by resume nearly obsolete. Applicant Tracking Systems (ATS) are now managing the application process. Let the LAK Group help you crack the code.
UNDERSTAND YOUR OPTIONS
Learn how to evaluate your best options based on your needs, goals, and current market demands. Jobs and skillsets are rapidly evolving, and understanding your options, whether that be changing industries, roles, or organizations, can transform your future.
JOB SEARCH TOOLKIT
With resumes requiring digital optimization strategies, cover letters in a state of flux, and LinkedIn profiles and strategies rapidly replacing the norms, the LAK Group will help you equip your toolkit with precisely what you need to succeed.
KNOWING YOURSELF IS SELLING YOURSELF
Learning the basics of talking and writing about yourself in a clear and compelling style can make or break your hiring potential. We help you navigate the way in gaining a competitive edge in a marketplace full of talent.
BUILD YOUR NETWORK
Applying to jobs and waiting to be contacted is a way of the past, and finding connections to help open doors is essential to moving forward. Seventy-five percent of open positions never hit the market, but the LAK Group enables you to navigate the world of networking, so those “hidden” positions become available opportunities.
JOB SEARCH METRICS AND ACCOUNTABILITY
Once you’ve identified your options and built your job search toolkit, you’ll need to fill your time with substantive, high-value activity. Do you know the most effective way to spend your job search time? We’ve developed tools and metrics to keep you on track and focused on your goal.
MANAGING MINDSET AND CONFIDENCE
Job loss and job search are career events that impact both job seekers and those close to them. Becoming future-focused and increasing positivity requires both internal and external focus, but learning job search strategies will boost your self-confidence even when dealing with rejection.
WHEN YOUR JOB SEARCH ISN'T WORKING ANYMORE
If you’re a job seeker who has been in search of a new position for six months or longer, the LAK Group helps you focus on refreshing and rebooting your approach to the marketplace. Correcting course and a fresh perspective will reinvigorate your campaign.
DIGITAL TRANSFORMATION AND LITERACY
We live in a time of exponential change. From the way we live and work to the way we relate to one another based on accelerated technology adoption, every industry is in a state of disruption. The LAK Group will give you a broader understanding of where you fit and how to choose a sustainable career direction.
DEVELOPING YOURSELF AS A LEADER
You may be fighting a losing battle if the first and only time a company identifies your talent is via a resume submission to an advertised job opening. LinkedIn offers a unique and powerful platform to establish yourself as a thought leader and subject matter expert; the LAK Group knows how to tackle the algorithm, draw in viewers, and find you the position you’re seeking.
RESUME STRATEGY WORKSHOP
Resume strategy today requires a strong understanding of how companies identify and recruit top talent. You’ll learn to move from selling your past to selling your future value. We’ll review the latest resume trends and dig into the technology of Applicant Tracking Systems (ATS). You’ll learn to optimize your resume to match the increasing sophistication of algorithms and Artificial Intelligence (AI). Keyword identification, cover letter content, and job search title research will also be discussed. Bring your laptop – this is a hands-on workshop where you’ll leave with a clear plan to build a powerful resume.
LINKEDIN STRATEGY LAB AND WORKSHOP
Both job seekers and employed professionals will find great value in this workshop, designed to help you expand your network, increase your profile views and engage your audience. LinkedIn is constantly changing. Your facilitator will ensure that you know how to use the latest LinkedIn features to support your brand and goals. You’ll learn to optimize your LinkedIn profile to impact the algorithms that increase your “findability.” You’ll learn how to differentiate yourself from your competition, find and connect with recruiters, use groups for career management and job search, and how to amplify your brand through LinkedIn updates and articles. Bring your laptop or mobile device for a deep dive into one of the best job search and career management tools available.
PRESENCE AND INFLUENCE STRATEGIES FOR 50+
Job seekers in the 50+ age range face unique challenges in the marketplace. Selling yourself to professionals of younger generations requires understanding their unconscious bias, work values, and preferences for interaction. Learn how to evaluate and improve your multigenerational communication and influencing skills and how to establish your relevancy.
