WEBINAR | The 2-hour job search for working professionals
- Career Center
- Le 23 octobre 2024
TIME: 13:00 to 14:00 Paris time
Looking for a new job is never easy. Paradoxically, as we become more skilled and more senior, it can become harder: fewer target roles, more competition and still the frustration of online applications that demand time and effort but give nothing in return.
The solution – pioneered by Steve Dalton in his bestselling book The 2-Hour Job Search – is to sidestep the black hole of internet job postings and network your way to referrals, interviews and jobs.
In this webinar we explore precisely how working professionals can adapt Steve’s method to target mid- to senior-level jobs with the same efficient networking strategy.
We will discuss:
- The biggest mistake mid-career job seekers make (and how to avoid it)
- The exact type of outreach email that works best for working professionals
- Why you should (mostly) ignore your existing network and reach out to strangers
- How to supercharge your job search with AI and LinkedIn (and when NOT to use them)
- How long you should expect to job-search
- How to run your job search on autopilot and maximise your chances of referrals, interviews and job offers
We have 200 free tickets for Audencia's alumni and students
(use code "AUD-student" if the ticket does not show)

Go Germany! Germany is a very multicultural country with many expats

This week, discover what Fabrice Bonnefoy from France has to say. About Fabrice: GRADUATED FROM THE MASTER IN MANAGEMENT (GRANDE ECOLE) PROGRAMME IN 2010 FROM FRANCE CURRENT POSITION: HEAD OF COMMUNICATION & DIGITAL MARKETING AT GROUPE SEB WMF CONSUMER GMBH DEUTSCHLAND IN FRANKFURT AM MAIN NATIVE LANGUAGE: FRENCH DAILY WORKING LANGUAGES: GERMANOTHER LANGUAGES SPOKEN: ENGLISH GERMAN LEVEL: EXPERT BEEN LIVING IN GERMANY FOR: 13 YEARS Fabrice's key message: “Germany is a very multicultural country with many expats" My biggest challenge The language when I first started working here. Myths and realities MYTH: I have often heard that Germans are cold and have no sense of humour. They may need more time to open to you. REALITY: The working culture is certainly different from what we see in France. The working hours are really about work. People don't drink coffee with each other or take a one-hour lunchbreak (in my experience at least). This obviously allows us to have working hours from around 9am to 6pm and to have time for other activities afterwards. The salaries are higher in Germany than in France for the same jobs but the money you’ll get for your retirement is lower than in France. My advice & top tips Apply in German! Your CV and cover letter should be sent together with the other documents in German. Applying in Germany means sending 10 to 15 pages of documents. This aspect is really formal here. Be aware of the specific German administrative procedures when you arrive. Quirky & cultural Being on time is extremely important: meetings start exactly on time and end exactly on time. I have seen people being kicked out of a meeting because they arrived 2 minutes late. I have also seen people leaving a meeting room even as someone was still presenting, since the meeting was officially over. And finally...
