Get Hired Up takes place over two days, March 30 and March 31. Sessions will be held via a Zoom webinar and Slack. Each event has a specific focus, so be sure to register for the one that most fits your needs. You'll have the opportunity to get your resume reviewed, participate in mock interviews, and ask questions in the main chat room.

Session 1 on March 30, 2021 from 4pm - 6pm focuses on non-technical resume review and mock interviews.

Session 2 on March 31, 2021 from 12pm - 2pm focuses on technical resume review and mock interviews.

Session 3 on March 31, 2021 from 3pm - 5pm focuses on both technical and non-technical resume review and mock interviews.

Be sure to have an electronic copy of your resume easily available so it can be shared with one of our volunteer reviewers.

You can register for any or all sessions. Details on how to register for the Zoom webinar and access the Slack channel will be provided via email after you register.

We are also looking for VOLUNTEERS to provide resume reviews and mock interviews. If you are interested, please be sure to select that option when registering.

Hosted by KinderCare Education.
