This program will present 45 minutes of instructional content, followed by Q
& A. Interaction is encouraged, and helps ensure this session will be
valuable and relevant to all!

This webinar offers something for everyone -- from current students to
senior professionals and longtime collectors thinking about making their
passion into their profession. You'll find it especially helpful, though, if
you're looking for work, currently in a short-term position, or anticipating
a return to the job market in order to advance or move in a new professional
direction.

Topics covered will include advice and resources for launching your career
in audio preservation, moving across disciplinary boundaries or job sectors,
and putting your best foot forward when you're ready to take your next
professional steps. We'll discuss how to keep learning once you've left the
structure of graduate school, as well as how to keep your spirits up during
the stressful job-search process. Attendees should come away with concrete
strategies for effectively framing their skill sets, actively shaping their
careers, and enacting positive change in a professional world where stress
is abundant and certainty remains elusive.
