Join us for a live web presentation on How to Beat the Dreaded Applicant Tracking System Featuring Jack Molisani.
Have you ever applied for a job via a company’s website but never received an interview? Chances are you made one (or several) mistakes that kicked you out of the running.
An applicant tracking system is a job application platform that uses artificial intelligence to rank how well it “thinks” you match the job for which you are applying. Make just one tiny mistake in your resume formatting and boom! you are disqualified.
In this session, professional recruiter Jack Molisani will offer valuable tips and tricks for getting past applicant tracking systems.

Join the STC-MGL and the Ohio STC chapter for Leading Successful Succession, featuring Jennifer Goode, Ph.D.
Is a coworker changing jobs? Is a team member taking leave? Did you get a promotion? Is the boss retiring? Team member change is inevitable in the workplace, and you shouldn’t be ill-prepared. Proactively thinking about regular activities, standard approaches, and common resources can reduce ambiguity and provide clear direction when team member change actually happens. Come learn how to apply your technical communication skills to draft a succession plan for your own role in a hands-on workshop. Then, learn strategies to foster successful succession in your organization, no matter what your position or role.
